An Academic Board made of representatives appointed by each Partner University will decide on the academic and administrative aspects related to the Ph.D programme.

The Academic Board supervises all the educational and research activities.

The Academic Board will draft and adopt its own rules of procedure. It will be convened at least once a year, if necessary via videoconference.

The Academic Board will fulfill the following duties according to partner Universities’ regulations: 

• providing admission criteria and overseeing the initial admission of students;
• admitting of students to the following year of the programme;
• providing guidelines and supervising students’ final examination;
• developing the joint training and research framework programme;
• in accordance with the rules in force at the Home University, deciding to exclude a doctoral student from continuing the programme on the basis of the evaluation of his or her activities. A written explanation of any such decision shall be given;
• in accordance with the rules in force at the Home University, deciding on suspension of a student from doctoral activities;
• in accordance with the rules in force at the Home University, deciding on requests for extensions submitted by doctoral students, after having consulted the supervisor and co-supervisor(s).

The Academic Board will decide on any other matter regarding the co-operation project, e.g. appointment of the supervisor and co-supervisor(s), forms and methods of teaching, deadlines for the assessment of the activities and time schedule of the periods to be spent at the partner Universities.

The Academic Board is chaired by a Coordinator chosen from the members of the Coordinating University.
