MeccPhD COLLOQUIA DOCTORALIA 2014
7-28 MARCH
We are honoured to welcome our 2014 Opponents:
MeccPhD Colloquia Doctoralia 2014
Within the Department of Mechanical
Engineering, Doctoral Defenses consist of two
major phases:
Technical Discussion: all Candidates present
their PhD thesis to selected Opponents
(internationally recognized experts in the field).
During the discussion, Candidates outline the
technical contributions of the thesis and answer
the Opponent's questions.
The second step consists in the Final Defense
session. Doctoral Candidates briefly present
their work to the Examination Board, disclosing
the wider significance of the research. Defense
sessions end with a public proclamation of
Candidates' final grades.
