Doctoral training is the highest level of higher education, with PhD students selected from among the best graduate students. In 1993, the university took over the right to award academic qualifications, laying the foundations for the development of the freedom of scientific thought. An average of 150-160 PhD degrees are awarded each year, with a degree attainment rate of 60-70 percent, which is exceptionally high by national standards. The aim of the training is to acquire the research competencies needed to carry out research, to form an independent opinion on scientific issues and to participate actively in professional public life. The PhD degree is a prerequisite for career progression in academia (universities and research institutes).<\/p>\n
