CLUSTER Dual Doctorate Framework Agreement See CLUSTER Intranet: Key Documents for the full document
The agreement The Dual Doctorate Framework supports and makes it easier for two CLUSTER universities (including associate members) to set up a dual doctorate programme, where a student is assigned a supervisor at both institutions. The studies are performed at both institutions and end with a joint public examination. With the Agreement the process for setting up a cotutelle for single doctoral students is faster and simpler since the institutions have already approved of joint supervision with the other CLUSTER-institutions in principle as well as the template for the individual agreement.
