  • Information on examination incl. requirements for final grade
  • Contact person


Course-PM should be written in both Swedish and English.

Please note that only courses with a designated examiner approved by FA can be examined.

Processing of the case

The documents are then sent to the program manager (PA) for the doctoral program, who reviews the documents and proposes an examiner for the course.

  1. PA sends the documents to SCI Office, fou@sci.kth.se, which prepares them for the research education manager (FA) to review and approve.
  2. The decision to establish the course is made by the school manager.
  3. After the decision, SCI Education Office sends a copy to the course coordinator, education administrator at the institution/department, and PA.
  4. PA is responsible for entering the course syllabus into KOPPS.
