Overview

Within the context of doctoral studies, doctoral candidates must generally provide required transcripts of grades for all doctoral level courses/seminars, amounting to at least 24 ECTS credits. The doctoral program in Administrative Science is offered by the University of Bern

If passed, courses and lectures taken at well-estsablished, recognized institutions offering doctoral degree programs may be counted without grades according to their respective levels, even if transcripts are not provided upon request. A maximum of 50% of the required credits may be accepted without grades. The credits earned are documented in a Diploma Supplement.

Co-authorships are possible, also with one of the reviewers (maximum 50% of the papers, i.e., in the case of three: one). An additional reviewer must then be found for co-authored papers.
