\nThe joint program will be realized in the co-tutelle formula, upon the conclusion of relevant agreements between the two Universities.

The participation in the program is free of charge, but the costs related to the stay at the partner University must covered by the doctoral student himself or herself (the costs of transportation, accommodation, the costs of health insurance required by the partner, and third party liability insurance costs). At the same time, the doctoral student may apply for funds from the PROM program, make use of the Erasmus Plus scholarship offer, and other forms of support available at the University of Silesia.
\nThe PhD candidate writes one thesis in English and there will be one public defense in that language.
