Evaluation Panels
______________________________________________________________
Monitoring of Thesis Formation and Development
1. The Academic Committee of the Doctoral Programme in Advanced Studies in Humanities will periodically appoint, for each line of research, a full board and an alternate board to monitor doctoral students. It will take into account the four main specialities that make up the programme: History, Art, Philosophy and. Ancient Sciences. The panel will be made up of three lecturers from the Doctoral Programme, one of whom will act as Chair and the other as Secretary.
2. As far as possible, in each line of research, the panel will initially be made up of the researcher with the most number of six-year terms on the doctoral programme, who will act as chairperson; the person who has supervised the most theses, will act as a member; and the youngest, will act as secretary. In the event of a tie between two possible members, a decision will be made by drawing lots between the two. As substitutes, the members of the panel who have formed part of the panel in its previous composition will be chosen. In the event that any of the persons coincide (for example, if the person with the most six-year terms is also the person who has supervised the most theses), the person immediately following will be chosen in accordance with the order established for each person (number of six-year terms, number of theses and age). In the event of a tie between two possible candidates, a decision will be made by drawing lots between the two.
3. The panels shall be appointed for a period of three academic years, after which they shall be renewed in their entirety, the outgoing members being excluded from the selection process for the following academic years. The evaluation panel shall convene two assessment sessions per year, approximately once every six months, at which students may present themselves for assessment. The members of the evaluation panel may not judge students they tutor or whose theses they supervise. In such cases, the corresponding substitutes will participate.
4. The assessment criteria used by the evaluation panel will be those defined by the Academic Committee of the Doctoral Programme in Advanced Studies in Humanities for each of the three years of thesis development, which must also have been approved by the Postgraduate Committee of the University of Malaga. The information on these criteria will be made public, will be posted on the Programme's website and will form part of the Documentary Commitment to Supervision that students sign when they enrol. These criteria must guarantee that doctoral students can make reasonable progress in the process of achieving the merits required by the Doctoral Programme for the defence of their thesis.
5. Each evaluation panel will evaluate, on the basis of the Activity Document of each doctoral student, as well as the reports issued for this purpose by the tutor and the thesis supervisor, at least the following aspects:
a) Progress of the thesis work with respect to the proposed Research Plan.
b) Scientific production to date (results, publications, etc.).
c) Stays and research visits, presentations at scientific meetings (congresses or conferences, workshops, seminars).
d) Completion of training activities and training complements.
e) Any other activity or subject considered relevant.
f) General assessment.
6. In the evaluation of the first year, the Research Plan and the Doctoral Thesis Project submitted by the PhD student will be assessed. Further information can be found in the section Guide to Procedures and in the section Assignment of Tutors and Thesis Mentors-Supervisors. If the evaluation panel rejects the project, the student will have a second opportunity to modify it and present it in the next evaluation period, for which purpose a new Research Plan must be drawn up. If the project is rejected a second time, the PhD student will be definitively withdrawn from the programme, which may be appealed against before the Postgraduate Commission of the University of Malaga.
7. In addition to judging the progress of the PhD student and the development of their research plan, each panel will make recommendations and suggestions to improve the thesis work and the evolution of the PhD student's research training. The examining panel will sign an evaluation report, which will be recorded in the Activity Document of each student on the doctoral programme.
8. As of the September 2015 evaluation, the procedure will be regulated by the Agreement of the Postgraduate Commission of the University of Malaga, 9th April 2015, which in its second section reads as follows:
Second. The academic committees of the doctoral programmes shall establish the specific timetable for the annual assessment of doctoral students, in accordance with the following time frames:
— Doctoral students enrolled for the first time on the programme in the first phase of enrollment (October) shall be subject to annual assessment in September or October of the year following the year in which they enrolled. If they do not take part in the aforementioned assessment, or do not pass it, they may take part in a second assessment in the following March or April.
— Doctoral students enrolled for the first time on the programme in the second phase of enrollment (February or March) must undergo an annual assessment in March or April of the year following the year in which they enrolled. If they do not take part in the aforementioned assessment, or do not pass it, they may take part in a second assessment, to be held in the following September or October.
— After the first annual assessment, doctoral students must submit their progress to successive annual assessments, within the same time frames established in the previous sections.
The entire Assessment Process (application for assessment, reports from tutors / mentors-supervisors, assessment by the panels and marking) is carried out through the DAD platform and is therefore not face-to-face.
