Level:  doctoral academic studies

Upon end of the studies student will receive a title: Phd in medical sciences - pharmacy

Study Program of PhD Studies in Pharmaceutical Sciences last 3 years and carries 180 ESPB points. The program includes 11 elective domains - modules. All the modules comprise 3 compulsory, common courses. Each module has 5-6 cumpulsory courses and elective blocks (2-4). According to the practice at European Universities, doctoral academic studies are based on research work during all the period of three year study. Preparing the doctoral thesis is planned since the first year of doctoral studies. Within the compulsory courses (modules), a student will study the subjects that are important for given elective domain - module, while within the elective block of courses students have an advantage to choose the courses which he/she will study further and which are directly regarded to the topic of doctoral thesis. Teaching will be carried out through individual (mentorial) work with students or in small groups. Working methods are adequately customized to the conception of doctoral studies (consultations, seminars, analysis of papers from original scientific literature). The Program includes an extensive, individual work of a student in research on solving scientific problems resulting in scientific publications in the renown international magazines from pharmaceutical sciences. Experimental work is complex and typically includes the applying of many complementary approaches, techniques and methods being realized in collaboration with laboratories (scientific teams) in domestic or foreign countries.

The primary goal of this Study Program of PhD Studies in pharmaceutical sciences is to provide for students the requested knowledge and to enable them to acquire the diploma that will be recognized by foreign European academic institutions as well as to give them an opportunity to be properly engaged in an academic environment as well as in the industry or to continue the postdoctoral studies from pharmaceutical or other familiar scientific disciplines at some domestic or European universities.

Students will be capable to perform individually and within team work many complex researches in order to solve important scientific problems from pharmaceutical and familiar scientific disciplines. They will be trained to work with the state-of-art instruments used in research laboratories in scientific and research institutions, as well as to apply their knowledge in practice, especially for solving specific problems or in finding out some concrete practical solutions. Also, students will be capable to set up a hypothesis and design experiments for their testing, as well as to analyze critically some issues. They will be able to realize the various aspects of scientific cooperations and scientific communication both in domestic and foreign country.

The right of enrollement is referred to the applicants who completed the elementary and academic (integrated) studies with an average grade point 8 (eight)
