The dissertation must therefore represent an independent original work that the student has prepared and written on their own. The latter shall be confirmed by the student in a preamble to the dissertation. A cumulative dissertation, for example consisting of an introduction and of one or several publications is not acceptable.

The dissertation topic must be from a field/sub-discipline that is represented at least at one institute/clinic of the Medical University of Graz. Should the preparation of the dissertation topic require the use of patient data, human resources, financial or material resources of the institute/clinic, approval shall only be granted if the director of the relevant institute or clinic has been informed of the proposed work in writing and has not declined it within one month due to a significant impairment of clinical, teaching and research operations. Furthermore, it must be ensured that patient data necessary for the dissertation shall be made available to the student in an appropriate format without violating data protection regulations.

(5) If it appears beneficial for the supervision to be carried out by a member of a different university or a non-member with a venia docendi, this person may be entrusted with being an additional external supervisor for a doctoral thesis, pursuant to 45 para. 4 Med Uni Graz Statute, Chapter Study law. (6) The advisor s duty is to guide and support the doctoral student in their independent scientific work. This includes promoting independent scientific publishing activities. The role of advisor to the student ends upon completion of the final comprehensive oral examination, which is generally after four years. An extension may be granted by the Dean on formal request by the student and with endorsement of the advisor in situations where circumstances necessitate consideration, or if so stipulated in the dissertation agreement, (7) The Study Rector shall assign a three-person Dissertation Committee for each dissertation, which shall be chaired by the supervisor. There must be one co-supervisor from outside the institute or clinic where the work is performed.

The Dissertation Committee supports and advises the student in the subject area and will invite them at least once a year to a personal meeting in which the student shall present their interim report. The spokesperson of the Doctoral School will forward the interim report to the Dean. An extraordinary meeting of the Dissertation Committee may be requested by the supervisor, a committee member, the student, or the Dean of Doctoral Studies. (8) It is possible to change advisors with due reason at any time until the dissertation is submitted. This requires approval by the Study Rector. Any new appointments made to the Dissertation Committee shall be reported to the Dean.

Before the dissertation can be forwarded to the reviewers for evaluation, at least one paper arising from the research must have been published or been accepted for publication in an SCI-listed journal with the candidate as first author. Assessment of the dissertation by the reviewers shall be completed within a maximum period of two months. Scientists with a venia docendi or an equivalent qualification in the field of the doctoral thesis and who are not biased in any way shall be consulted as examiners.
