PhD Program

The Department of Ichthyology and Aquatic Agriculture (DIAE) of the University of Thessaly organizes and operates a Doctoral Studies Program (DSP). The objective of the DSP is to provide doctoral level education in the research subjects that are studied by the Department through the laboratories and research activities of the faculty members, so that the graduates of the program gain a strong scientific background, experience and know-how to adopt optimal solutions and applications. in the corresponding topics.

In the DSP study guide, there is a thorough set of educational rules regarding the implementation of the doctoral dissertation and additional information regarding the application and the process of elaboration of the dissertation in the DIAE research topics.
