‘’Doctoral Degree” (Doctor – Engineer of NTUA / PhD)
The Doctor of Philosophy course (PhD) requires three or four years of full-time study to complete. For this research qualification in-depth, rigorous and focused research, ultimately leading to an ‘original and significant contribution in sciences and technology’ is required. The following PhD Theses were carried out in the laboratory.
