Sometimes changes to the supervision arrangements are needed during the doctoral thesis project. For example, when your supervisor retires or transfers to another university, or when the topic of your thesis transforms, you might need a change of supervisor. Sometimes new supervisors are also added to the supervision team during the project.
The practices related to changes in the supervision arrangements vary a little from programme to programme. If the need arises to make changes to your supervision team, please be in touch with the planning officer of your doctoral programme. Contact information for the planning officers is available in the article Services for doctoral education.
Sometimes changes to the coordinating academic (responsible person) of a doctoral researcher are needed. The practices related to changes in a coordinating academic vary somewhat between doctoral programmes. Please remember to contact the planning officer of your doctoral programme to receive the programme specific instructions. Contact information for the planning officers is available in the article Services for doctoral education.
