The Doctoral School of Geography

The Geography Doctoral School serves as a focal point for advanced research within the Faculty of Geography. Not merely an administrative entity, it operates as a showcase for research excellence both nationally and internationally. The emphasis on increased visibility reflects a commitment to fostering a global dialogue in the field of geography. The school actively encourages international cooperation, creating a network that transcends geographical boundaries.

In its multidimensional approach, the doctoral school engages in research across the spectrum of physical and human geography. The environment cultivates a culture where curiosity is welcomed and nurtured. The role of the director extends beyond administrative tasks to encompass a commitment to guiding candidates towards academic success and ethical research practices.

Prospective candidates and researchers are invited to consider the Geography Doctoral School as a platform for contributing to the ongoing narrative of geography. It stands as an institution dedicated to shaping the future of the field through rigorous research and a commitment to fostering a global community of scholars.
