• Mandate
– “The primary task of the external evaluation
committee is to evaluate the scientific quality of the
program specializations in light of international
standards. This includes an evaluation of the program
structure, courses offered, supervision, research
environment, administrative support,
internationalization, the structure and scientific merit
of doctoral dissertations, the attractiveness of the
program for new applicants, and the attractiveness of
candidates for academic and non-academic positions.”

functioning, of good quality and show high levels
of self-reflection and awareness of existing
challenges.”

• “As far as could be judged from the thesis
abstracts, and the evaluation reports the quality
of PhD research is comparable to other research
intensive universities internationally.”

robust throughout”.
