Ph.D in Environmental Science train students for careers in the academic, public, private, or non-profit sectors and have the ability to think censoriously, creatively, and holistically about environmental issues. After passing the doctorate course, students learn how natural and engineered environmental systems work and what one can do to protect and develop them. Students are supervised by at least one member of the academic staff who is an expert in the student’s field of study. Supervisors support students in developing an independent and novel project in their field of interest. Students will learn how to review relevant literature, to phrase and answer scientific questions, and to report their findings to the scientific community, at conferences and through peer-reviewed scientific publications. The students are encouraged to get experience in undergraduate teaching, which can be either as demonstrators during practical classes or supervisors teaching small groups.
At the end of each semester students are required to pass a semester wise assessment, based on a detailed progress report examined by Research advisory committee.
