-Further credit points can be gained as described in the “Publications, seminars” section and with the completion of the research work prescribed for the first phase of the studies.
-45  credit  points  are the minimum to  be  gained  by  the  end  of  the first academic year.

One credit equals 30 individual study hours or 30 hours doing research. Study work can be  realized  by  participating  at  lectures  and  practical  classes  (contactlessons)  and meeting the requirements of the given course/subject.

In the second phase
The research related credit points can be gained not only by elaborating the literature of the  research  task,  carrying  out  experiments,  evaluating  their  results,  but also  with publication activities and conference presentations (workshop etc.), and completing the dissertation.

The professional seminars (total 4) organised by the Doctoral School provide 4-5 credit points  each.  The  credit  points  can  be  divided,  which  means  that  if on a  given  area maximum 20 credit points are obtainable but the doctoral student just manages to gain 10  in  the  given  semester,  the  rest  of  the  credit  points  can  be  obtained  during  the oncoming semester(s). Over the training,the doctoral student is given the opportunity to undertake  practical  lessons  or  seminars,  through  which  they  can be  engaged  ineducational activities.Three (3) credit points can be given for teaching 1 contact lesson a week throughout a semester. The doctoral student can only participate in the first four semesters  of  the  training  and  the  total  number  of  credits  obtainable  with  teaching activities  cannot  be  more  than  10  per  semester.  In  the  four  semesters  of  the  second phase,30 credit points are to be gained.

You are invited to acquaint yourself with our Doctoral Program whose unique feature is the transdisciplinary approach to studying and investigating complex problems. The program is an integral part of the Doctoral School of Regional and Business Administration Sciences of the Széchenyi István University, Győr, Hungary since 2016. The doctoral program, which has enjoyed fundamental support from the Pallas Athene Domus Meriti Foundation, is the first full-fledged, international doctoral program in the field of business administration sciences with a transdisciplinary approach administered in English. Our faculty members include visiting professors and supervisors from various countries. The majority of the students enjoy scholarships in the course of both the educational phase and the research phase of their studies.

This doctoral program is based on academic rigor which emphasizes practical relevance by welcoming practitioners to join the program. In addition to the traditional business administration approaches, the program offers a transdisciplinary approach that emphasizes the importance of using different, subtle theoretical lenses in developing analyses of diverse phenomena to be understood within an academic research framework. For further information please examine our detailed Curriculum.

The SzEEDSM Doctoral Program enhances and amplifies the message that our Doctoral School is the right academic space where the seeds of knowledge are sown and well-trained scholars and practitioners will be the yield at the end of the program. The ultimate goal of our program is to enable doctoral students to become leaders of change in their communities both in academia and in the corporate world.
