Commitment document

The commitment document (see download link below) is a written agreement that establishes the framework for relations between the PhD student, the supervisor, the thesis tutor and the UAB, and the rights and duties of each.

Within a maximum of 3 months from when they are admitted to the PhD programme, students and the thesis supervisors assigned to them together draw up a commitment document setting out the conditions under which they will collaborate, the duties and work schedules of the student, the thesis supervisor and the thesis tutor, the system for resolving disputes, etc. This document is signed by the student, the thesis supervisor, the thesis tutor, and the programme coordinator.

The programme's coordinator or administration will arrange for the signing and storing of the document.

If the commitment document cannot be formally ratified for reasons attributable to the PhD student, admission and registration on the  programme are invalidated, with no right to reimbursement of the registration fee.
