Individual Follow-up Committee (ISC)

During the thesis, the Doctoral School monitors the progress of the work and the conditions under which it is carried out.

Follow-up of doctoral students during the course of their thesis is mandatory (Unistra thesis charter). The meeting of the CSI (Comité de Suivi Suivi Individuel) provides an opportunity to review the progress of work, any difficulties encountered and any changes to the initial subject.

The doctoral student sets up his or her CSI during the first few months of the thesis (see document “Implementation CSI_ED413_EN”) and uploads it to his or her AMETHIS account. The composition of the CSI must be validated by the thesis director and then the Doctoral School director before its first meeting.
The CSI must meet every year before each re-registration. Deadlines are before June 30 for 1st and 2nd year doctoral students, and before April 30 for 3rd year doctoral students and above. This is to enable the Doctoral School to anticipate any difficulties and allow re-enrolment.
The members of the CSI write up a report (see document “form_CSI_ED413_EN”), which is uploaded to AMETHIS for validation by the Doctoral School director.

Doctoral students are reminded that they may, if they wish, meet with one or more members of the Doctoral School board at any time during their thesis, to discuss any difficulties they may encounter in the course of their work.
