Responsibilities of the Student

Your main responsibilities working on the research project will be to report your progress regularly, hand in a final written report (15-20 pages), and give an oral presentation in English at the end of the program for an evaluation by the hosting department. Depending on the project, other tasks might be included.

Responsibilities of the Department

The supervising professor selects an adequate academic advisor for the IREP applicant. The academic advisor meets with the IREP student on a weekly basis and helps the student to understand and reach the research objective. The student will receive adequate work space and tools. The supervising professor evaluates the work of the student and awards ECTS and a grade for the project.
