Each doctoral student is admitted to a specific doctoral education subject and follows the general syllabus for that subject.
On this page, you will find information about the doctoral education subjects and general syllabuses at SLU's faculties. You will find both current and past doctoral education subjects. Please note that the year the doctoral student was admitted decides which version of the syllabus that applies.
