• 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).
