We would like to inform you that Ministerial Decree no. 226 of 14 December 2021 - the new regulations on doctoral studies - introduces the possibility of an unpaid extension of a maximum of twelve months, for proven reasons that do not allow the submission of the thesis within the timeframe foreseen by the duration of the course (art. 8, paragraph 6, of the Ministerial Decree).
While waiting for the innovations contained in the Ministerial Decree to be implemented in the University Regulations, the above-mentioned extension can be used by those who need it, starting from the XXXIV cycle, with a special request to be decided by the PhD Board.
