The current curriculum of the József Hatvany Doctoral School for full- and part-time students
A minimum of eight (8) subjects must be taken as part of the doctoral program, which must be completed with a successful examination. The enrollment of the 8 subjects must follow a set of rules.
In addition to the 8 subjects, further subjects may be taken if justified by the subject area, but credits can only be awarded for at most 12 subjects.
Training plan for students starting from or after September 2026
- Students must take two compulsory foundation courses, two of which are in mathematics and two in computer science.
- At least one (1) subject must be taken in each topic area as prescribed for that topic area (or from among the compulsory elective subjects). This subject summarises the most important theoretical foundations of the topic area.
- At least one (1) subject must be taken from each topic group as prescribed for that topic group (or from the compulsory elective subjects). This subject summarises the most important theoretical foundations of the topic group.
- Two (2) additional subjects may be freely chosen from among all subjects announced by the Doctoral Council of the Discipline.
Training plan for students who started before September 2026
- Students must take four compulsory foundation courses, two of which are in mathematics and two in computer science.
- At least one (1) subject must be taken in each topic area as prescribed for that topic area (or from among the compulsory elective subjects). This subject summarises the most important theoretical foundations of the topic area.
- At least one (1) subject must be taken from each topic group as prescribed for that topic group (or from the compulsory elective subjects). This subject summarises the most important theoretical foundations of the topic group.
- Two (2) additional subjects may be freely chosen from among all subjects announced by the Doctoral Council of the Discipline.
