Well before the deadline visit the official website of the Hungarian Doctoral Council where you find all the names and homepages of our supervisors and a list of thesis topics respectively. Even if no thesis topics are announced by someone whose research field you find to be closely related to your interest, contact her/him via email and agree on a topic suitable for you, provided your knowledge and research experience are relevant to the subject. Upon mutual agreement, ask the potential supervisor to announce this new topic on these websites. Agree with the supervisor on the outlines of the research and prepare a research plan which should be submitted and signed by both the supervisor and you. |
