Objectivos

The Research Seminar II is designed for the preparation of the research project of the doctoral thesis, which students started back in September 2017. Hence, having concluded the lecture-based part of their research-design doctor candidates. During the various sessions (a 2-hour session each week, during the 2nd semester: see attached table), doctoral students (hereafter, students) will present their research projects, which will then be assessed and discussed constructively during these sessions. For a successful research project, students should try to attend all lectures. The coordinator is always present in this curricular unit as well.

Programa

Presentation
The aim then, is that this 2nd Semester results in the approval of the research project for the doctoral thesis. The presentation and discussion of the project during a session of the Seminar will result in its reformulation under the supervision of the project thesis tutor. Participation in the discussion of other thesis projects during the Seminar may well help the reformulation of your own project.
The Research Seminar ends with the presentation of the thesis project in a public viva in front of an examination panel, after the end of lectures (in June/July, in accordance with an as yet unpublished timetable).
For each student the panel is composed as follows:- 1) the doctorate degree coordinator, who will chair the panel; 2) another member of the Scientific committee of the doctoral programme; 3) the tutor for the doctoral thesis; 4) an external professor from another university who is an expert in the field of the research under discussion.
The written description of the research project will be handed to members of the panel in advance, at a yet to be decided date.
The discussion of the project takes place over 1.5 hours, starting with a 30 minute overall presentation by the student of their thesis project. This is followed by the communication of the comments and interjection by the external professor and other members of the panel, to which the student is given an equal opportunity to reply.

Metodologia de avaliação

1) A decision about the thesis project:-: a): Accepted without reformulation; b) Accepted, but subject to the reformulations suggested by the panel; c) Not accepted.
2) A grading of the Seminar, on a scale of 0 to 20.
If the project is not accepted, then the panel will decide whether the student should be invited to abandon the programme, or whether they should be permitted to re-submit their project at a date to be decided. Should the project be accepted, but subject to substantial ...
