Please remember that the doctoral thesis must include at least the following sections: Summary, Introduction, Objectives and Hypotheses, Methodology, Results and Discussion, Conclusions, and Bibliography.

You must submit your thesis as an A4 PDF file (unprotected and without signatures). We have a standardized format that must be used to create the cover, front cover, inside cover, and conflict of interest statement for your thesis:

The document must not contain watermarks and should include only the essential number of blank pages, following the guidelines for document formatting.

Additionally, we recommend following the guidelines on consistency, typographical readability, and functional ease outlined in the style guide for thesis preparation, published by the Publications and Scientific Exchange Service:

It is not necessary to submit a printed copy of this document to EDIUS, although the application generates a cover and front cover for the printed version in case you need it.
