Program description:
Doctoral School of Sociology and Communication Science has two Programs.
1. The Doctoral program of Sociology consists of two parts. In the first two years, doctoral students attend classes, outline and elaborate their research projects, and eventually participate in teaching. The coursework focuses on developing research skills. That first part is completed with a comprehensive examination. Upon passing the comprehensive examination, students are allowed into the second two years and to work on the doctoral dissertation. The final dissertation must be submitted 5 years after acceptance to the program. Students should work on their doctoral research continuously. In the first two years, the research seminars help the students to design the doctoral research. Third and fourth-year students are going to present their research findings at research forums.
2. The objective of the Doctoral Program of Social Communication is to prepare students to carry out high quality research in the following areas: the examination of issues of theoretical and applied communication, the clarification of the notion of communication, its role in society and its theoretical context, as well as the exploration of the sociological, socio/psychological, cultural, anthropological and ethological aspects of communication. The program of the School, besides offering sociological and psychological knowledge, is geared to the combination of the particular accents of the theories, paradigms, hypotheses, methods, and problem orientation of cultural studies, communication and media studies, as well as historical social sciences, placing strong emphasis on critical, global and interdisciplinary approaches.
