Program that leads to success

First you choose a mentor you will work with and who will help you overcome all obstacles in your research and theoretical studies.

Then you will be acquainted with the doctoral study program based on practical education and theoretical teaching. Through individual conversations with the mentor, you will find the right way to explore your interests, formulate your ideas and acquire new knowledge.
