Great to have you on board in the IIIEE PhD programme!

The IIIEE is an organisation within Lund University, which does not belong to any faculty. Meanwhile, we have a quality assurance agreement with the Faculty of Engineering (LTH) regarding our PhD education, which means that we follow formalities related to our PhD education (e.g. how to register courses, individual study plans (ISPs), procedures related to PhD defence, etc.).

The general study plan of the IIIEE PhD education is found here.

PhD studies are self-driven, and you should be the primary “owner” of the study and take initiatives in its progress. Meanwhile, the primary guidance provider during the study is your supervisors, with whom you should consult to be on the right track. Please do also keep in mind that you have other formal “supporters” – Director of PhD studies, PhD administrator.

In addition to discussing the content with your supervisors and other people in your research circle, please do take some time to meet some people at the IIIEE who could help you settle well in the PhD programme.
