INFORMATION ABOUT THE SEMESTER CLOSURE
The submission deadline for the semester closing documents is usually at the end of the semester exam period. The deadline for the submission of requests for accreditation of new optional courses may differ from the deadline for the other documents. Forms and templates for the documents to be submitted can be found on the website of the Doctoral School (see Downloads).
PhD students are emailed about the exact submission deadlines in each semester.
RECORD OF THE COURSE RESULTS
- Comprehensive course (’Átfogó előadás’): the result will be recorded in the electronic system by the administration of the Doctoral School; no further action is required.
- Optional courses: The result will be recorded in the electronic system by the respective lecturer/department. We kindly ask every student to monitor the process and to notify us in case of any problem or delay. If the Neptun system is not available for the given course (for example, in the case of courses in external institutions), we accept a signed and sealed completion certificate.
DOCUMENTS TO BE SUBMITTED AT THE END OF THE SEMESTER
- Research project (’Tudományos kutatómunka’): it is certified by filling out the certification paper and the signature of the supervisor. The doctoral school administration will record the results in the electronic system.
- Publication (’Publikáció’) is certified by filling out the publication list. A copy of all publications is required (text of article as well as the journal's table of contents, slideshow, and official program of conference lecture). The doctoral school administration will record the results in the electronic system. The score achieved will be verified during administration. The Doctoral School – in order to prevent duplications – is only evaluating the publications released during the respecting semester. Publications under review only can be accepted at the end of the 4th and 8th semester.
- Education under guidance (’Irányított oktatás’): in case the student took part in teaching at the Department, it is certified by submitting the certification paper signed by the head of the department. The doctoral school administration will record the results in the electronic system.
- Enrollment sheet for the following semester (Enrollment sheets for semester registration must also be filled out and submitted in case of passive status!)
- Research report (signed by the supervisor)
- Certificate of completion of optional courses (signed and sealed by the respective lecturer/department) - Only if the result cannot be registered in the Neptun system.
