The Code of Good Practice is a set of recommendation and commitments that acts as a guide to PhD candidates in their joint situation as postgraduate students and trainee researchers.

The UAB is committed to the objective of achieving excellence in teaching, research and knowledge transfer, and supports the development and use of learning methodologies adapted to each stage.

The School for Doctoral Studies, as an integral part of the UAB, subscribes to that commitment and sets it out in the code of good practice, which is understood as a code of values and principles that inspire its activities and adhered to by all those taking part in them. It should therefore be understood that the School for Doctoral Studies has an internal set of rules including the rights and responsibilities of the supervisors, academic tutors and PhD candidates.

You must sign this code of good practice once you have been admitted to the PhD programme and no later than three months after admission (download here the signature form).
