Research Seminar

The progress of the dissertation or thesis research of all PPGBBE students is monitored based on a written report and an oral presentation of a research seminar. Master students present a seminar each semester (Seminars I-III) whereas PhD students present the first seminar after 6 months of their registration (Seminar I) and then yearly on the 18th month (Seminar II) and 36th month (Seminar III). PhD students must also present a Qualifying Seminar between 24th and 30th month after registration.

In all cases, written student reports and oral presentations are evaluated by a faculty board selected by the PPGBBE Committee. The board includes three members with PhD degrees in Biodiversity and Evolutionary Biology related areas, at least one member is BBE Faculty.

Students with two insufficient successive presentations will have their scholarships canceled. Those who show exceptional progress in their research will receive honorable commendation.
