Participation in PhD courses for PhD students
(for Industrial PhD students, see below)
Even if the courses may be mentioned in your FU plan, you still need to apply for pre-approval of the PhD courses.
- Fill in this form for academic approval of PhD courses: https://www.sdu.dk/en/forskning/phd/phd_skoler/naturvidenskabelig_phd_uddannelse/ansoegningsskemaer
- Sent the signed form to the chairman of BMB's PhD committee, Frank Kjeldsen for approval.
Remember to also send a course certificate to natphd@sdu.dk as soon as the course is completed/passed, so that your ECTS can be registered in PHDPORTAL, where you can see them yourself.
Costs related to your participation in PhD courses must be covered with the financial means you have been granted in the form of a student travel account and pocket money. You can read the analysis number and the rules regarding the use of these funds in the email that you received/receive from Marianne Rasmussen at the beginning of your PhD programme regarding a student travel account and pocket money.
It is thus your supervisor and BMB PhD committee who must approve the course and your supervisor who must approve the costs.
For Industrial PhD students:
The Department does not pay courses to Business PhD students, as Innovation Fund Denmark provides grants to the company for the payment of your courses. Should there be a relevant PhD course, which is usually offered to enrolled PhD students here at SDU and where payment is made, then it is your supervisor who must approve and pay the course.
The Business PhD course has again become mandatory at 5 ECTS and is paid for by Innovation Fund Denmark. Therefore, business PhD students cannot also apply for payment for the SDU CUU courses in project management and management.
