The practice of preparing doctoral theses from scientific publications aims to enhance the scientific quality of doctoral research at ITU, encourage the production of high-quality publications derived from ongoing doctoral studies, increase the number of ITU-affiliated publications indexed in scientific citation databases, and facilitate the thesis writing process for successful doctoral students.

Theses prepared within this scope must comply with the principles set forth in the “Directive on the Preparation of Doctoral Theses from Scientific Publications.”

Standard thesis submission and thesis defense procedures also apply to theses prepared under this directive.
