Doctoral studies at UNG are characterised by our individual approach to PhD students, which also includes online forms of teaching and learning. In the future we will continue to offer online lectures and seminars to all PhD students who cannot be present at UNG due to health-related, administrative- (visa-related) and accommodation-related or other reasons. Online support is also available to students in the form continuous online communication with their mentors and experts form UNG’s research units, and videoconferencing systems are used for defences of doctoral dissertations. However, a certain amount of students’ individual research work requiring laboratory or fieldwork research, cannot be performed online and will still take place in situ.
