Usluga visokog obrazovanja i problem vremenskog roka za završetak doktorskih akademskih studija

Abstract

Legislative solutions to higher education in Serbia carry with them problems that may cause problems in practice. We have witnessed in recent years that, almost every start of the new academic year, tensions arise in the student public regarding the rules on the time limit for the completion of studies for those students who have enrolled in faculties the so-called old program. In the research conducted so far, regarding the temporal dimension of the validity of certain provisions of the Higher Education Law, no special attention was paid to the prescribed deadline for completion of PhD studies. In this paper, this is done on the basis of an analysis of the relevant provisions of the legal regulations, with a concluding opinion on the need for appropriate changes.The aim of such a conclusion is to ensure and protect the credibility of the PhD study program, as well as to protect the interests of PhD students.
