The course comprises approximately 80 full-time hours and normally extends over a year with seminar sessions evenly distributed during term periods. The course assumes the form of science seminars where the doctoral students critically examine each other's research results. The student orally presents the research results obtained during the last six months, and also presents a critical review and reflection on the results. During the seminar, other participants are expected to participate actively in the critical review and discussion of the presented work.
