Doctoral Studies in Romania: Admission Procedures, Social, and Legal Aspects of Doctoral Training

摘要

This contribution presents a concise and up-to-date report of doctoral studies in Romania, with a special emphasis on legal and social aspects. The author also argues that in order to be sustainable, the reform of doctoral studies should be substantiated by the differentiation of universities, reliable post-doctoral programmes, and a substantive rejuvenation of PhD supervisors.
