Study Plans

According to the Higher Education Ordinance, an individual study plan must be drawn up for each doctoral student. It must contain the university's and doctoral student's commitments as well as a timetable for the doctoral student's education. The plan must be decided after consultation with the doctoral student and their supervisor.

The individual study plan must be regularly followed up and, after consultation with the doctoral student and his or her supervisor, changed to the extent necessary. At Mid Sweden University, individual study plans are managed in Ladok.
