(Link: https://www.uniza.sk/images/pdf/uradna-tabula/smernice-predpisy/10122020_S-110-2013-Studijny-poriadok-PhD-v-zneni-D1-a-D3.pdf) and Organizational Rules and Rules of Procedure of the Departmental Field Commission of the Field of Study Security Sciences (Link: https://www.fbi.uniza.sk/uploads/files/1603717250-Organizacny-poriadok-OK-Bezpecnostne-vedy-2020-.pdf).

The study plan is elaborated within the specified rules and in accordance with the study regulations (the Directive No. 110) by the supervisor (tutor) in cooperation with the student. The study plan of the doctoral study is developed as an individual study plan. The content and structure of individual study plans reflect the activities, knowledge and skills formulated in the accreditation file of the respective study programme. In order to ensure their fulfilment, requirements and criteria are defined in the study plan, the fulfilment of which is subject to regular inspection. The study plan consists of a study part, which ends with a dissertation examination, a scientific part and the defence (viva) of the dissertation. The study part of the study plan consists mainly of participation in lectures, seminars and individual study of scientific literature in individual years of study according to the focus of the dissertation.

The individual study plan states:

  • a list of courses, including a professional foreign language in the scope of two semesters, which the doctoral student is to complete;
  • a list of dissertation examination courses selected from a list approved by the departmental field commission;
  • a list of mandatory and recommended literature to be studied by the doctoral student in the individual preparation for the dissertation examination.

The individual study plan of the doctoral student also contains the dates on which the doctoral student is to pass the individual courses and the dissertation examination.

The scientific part of the study plan consists of individual or team scientific work of the doctoral student which is related to the topic of the dissertation. The scientific part of the doctoral student's study plan is professionally guaranteed by the supervisor.

An integral part of the doctoral student's activities prescribed in the study plan is the active participation of the doctoral student in international conferences, especially those indexed in international databases (WOS, SCOPUS) and publication in scientific journals. The doctoral student's study plan also includes the obligation to publish the results obtained during the study, which are related to the topic of the dissertation, in at least one impact journal, which has an assigned quartile of at least Q3 in Web of Science or at least Q2 in the SCOPUS database.

An inseparable part of the doctoral student's activities in the full-time form of study is the active participation of the doctoral student in a foreign stay of at least two months or one semester.

The supervisor submits the individual study plan for approval to the chairman of the working group of the departmental field commission, who then submits it for approval to the members of the working group of the departmental field commission. The individual study plan must be elaborated in such a way that by completing it the doctoral student meets the conditions for the proper completion of study within the standard length of study of the given study programme. 

b Odporúčané študijné plány pre jednotlivé cesty v štúdiu

The recommended study plan is a schedule of the standard length of study. It is elaborated so that by completing it, the student meets the conditions for the proper completion of the studies in the standard length.

The student's recommended workload ranges from 1,500 to 1,800 hours per academic year, which means that one ECTS credit corresponds to 25 to 30 hours of work.

The recommended study plan must enable the student to elaborate his/her study plan in such a way that during the study he/she completes all compulsory courses and the prescribed share of compulsory optional courses so that during the study he/she obtains at least 180 ECTS credits in the doctoral degree studies.

The specific rules for the creation of recommended study plans are regulated by the Directive No. 203 "Rules for the Creation of Recommended Study Plans for UNIZA Study Programmes".

At the level of the University, the policies, structures, and processes are defined by the Directive No. 110 – Study Regulations for the Third Degree of the University Study at the University of Žilina in Žilina. (Link: https://www.uniza.sk/images/pdf/uradna-tabula/smernice-predpisy/10122020_S-110-2013-Studijny-poriadok-PhD-v-zneni-D1-a-D3.pdf).

Conditions during the study:

The conditions during the study are tied to obtaining ECTS credits for the completion of specialized doctoral lectures and seminars based on the study plan, successful completion of the dissertation examination, pedagogical activities of up to 4 hours per week in the full-time form of study; in the part-time form of study there is the obligation to give selected lectures and perform other professional activities; independent activity in the field of science and research as well as pedagogy – publishing with emphasis on outputs in impacted journals, included in international indexed databases (WoS, Scopus), active co-solution of scientific tasks, supervision of students´ scientific and professional activities (in Slovak ŠVOČ), bachelor's theses, acceptance of dissertation for the defence (viva). 

The credit system of the Faculty determines the number of ECTS credits that the doctoral student is obliged to obtain for:

  1. progression to the next year of study;
  2. registration for the dissertation examination;
  3. submission of an application for a dissertation defence (viva) permission;
  4. recognition of other activities according to the individual study plan of the doctoral student.

 

A full-time doctoral student registers for the dissertation examination usually within 12 months, but no later than 18 months from the date of enrolment for the doctoral degree study; and a part-time doctoral student no later than 36 months from the date of enrolment for the doctoral degree study. The doctoral student is obliged to submit a written work prepared for the dissertation examination together with the application for the dissertation examination. The written work for the dissertation exam consists of the dissertation project, containing an overview of the current state of knowledge on the topic, an outline of the theoretical foundations of its future solution and an analysis of the methodological approach to solving the issue. The dissertation examination consists of a part consisting of a discussion of the written work for the dissertation examination and a part in which the doctoral student has to demonstrate theoretical knowledge in the specified courses of the dissertation examination. Examinations from individual courses can also be taken by the doctoral student during the study part of the doctoral degree study by a discussion of the written work for the dissertation examination. Completion of individual courses is assessed with a grade, while the evaluation is performed based on a classification scale consisting of six classification grades.

Conditions for proper completion of the study: The conditions are defined by the Directive No. 110. The study is completed by completing the defence (viva) of the dissertation thesis. 180 ECTS credits are required for the proper completion of studies in the doctoral degree study programme. It is the duty of the doctoral student to submit an internal defence (viva) at his/her workplace before submitting the application for a dissertation thesis defence (viva). In the standard length of study, the doctoral student must complete the defence (viva) no later than in the last month of the last academic year of his/her standard length of study. The defence (viva) of the dissertation takes place in the form of a scientific discussion before the evaluation commission. In order to successfully complete the dissertation thesis defence (viva), the doctoral student must obtain an absolute majority of the positive votes of the present members of the dissertation defence (viva) commission and opponents.

The rules for repeating the study / a part of the study are stipulated in the Study Regulations (the Directive No. 110). A student who has failed in the defence (viva) of the dissertation examination may repeat the examination only once, at the earliest three months after the date of the unsuccessful dissertation examination within the deadline set by the chairman of the examination commission. Repeated failure in the dissertation examination is a reason for exclusion from the doctoral degree study.

The dissertation thesis defence (viva) can only be repeated once, no later than two years after the end of the standard length of study.

The rules for the interruption of study are stipulated in the Study Regulations. A doctoral student may, in both standard as well as the above-standard lengths of study, request an interruption of the doctoral degree studies (even repeatedly) due to maternity leave, medical reasons, due to his/her study stay abroad, which is not part of his/her individual study plan or other serious reasons. The Dean allows the study to be interrupted. The total period of interruption of the doctoral degree studies generally does not exceed 18 months. In special, justified cases, e.g. during the next maternity leave, the doctoral study can be interrupted for a longer period, but not longer than 36 months.

f Pravidlá pre overovanie výstupov vzdelávania a hodnotenie študentov a možnosti opravných postupov voči tomuto hodnoteniu

At the level of the University, the policies, structures, and processes are defined by the Directive No. 110 – Study Regulations for the Third Degree of the University Study at the University of Žilina in Žilina. (Link: https://www.uniza.sk/images/pdf/uradna-tabula/smernice-predpisy/10122020_S-110-2013-Studijny-poriadok-PhD-v-zneni-D1-a-D3.pdf) and the Directive No. 216 – Quality Assurance of the Doctoral Degree Studies at the University of Žilina in Žilina (Link: https://www.uniza.sk/images/pdf/kvalita/2021/smernica-UNIZA-c-216.pdf).

The overall learning outcomes at the level of the study programme are gradually fulfilled and verified through the learning outcomes of individual courses, which are clearly measurable. A weighted study average is used to evaluate the student's overall learning outcomes in a given period.

Forms of verification of the acquired knowledge, skills and competencies in a course are determined by the study plan and course information sheet (conditions for passing the course). Verification is also performed by teachers during the study part of the doctoral degree study by a discussion of the written work for the dissertation examination. Completion of individual courses is assessed with a grade, while the evaluation is performed based on the classification scale consisting of six classification grades. The grade expresses the result of the evaluation in accordance with the objective and content of the course, as well as the learning outcomes stated in the course information sheet, as well as the student's ability to apply the acquired knowledge.

Within the evaluation of the third degree of study, ECTS credits are awarded to the doctoral student for individual activities, while during the study it is necessary to obtain 180 ECTS credits for the successful completion of the doctoral degree study. The doctoral student obtains them for the courses of the dissertation examination, foreign language, dissertation examination and the defence (viva) of the dissertation thesis. In terms of scientific research activities, the doctoral student obtains points for dissertation projects, publications, patents, utility models, citations and active presentations at conferences and seminars. An overview of points for scientific research activities is given in Annex No. 2 to the Directive No. 216. The evaluation is performed once a year at the end of the academic year by the supervisor and is approved by the guarantor of the relevant study programme and subsequently by the Dean.

Rules for student access to remedies:

The dissertation examination consists of a part comprising a discussion of the written work for the dissertation examination and a part in which the doctoral student shall demonstrate theoretical knowledge in the specified courses of the dissertation examination. Examinations from individual courses can also be taken by the doctoral student during the study part of the doctoral degree study before the discussion of the written work for the dissertation examination. The examination is held in front of the commission with the participation of the teacher providing the course, and two other members without the presence of the opponent. Completion of individual courses is assessed with a grade, while the evaluation is conducted based on the classification scale consisting of six classification grades. The presence of an absolute majority of the members of the examination commission is required for a valid decision on the result of the dissertation examination, while examiners of the courses that were not taken during the study must be present. The examination commission decides on the result of the examination in a closed session. In order to successfully complete the dissertation examination, the doctoral student must obtain an absolute majority of the positive votes of the present members of the examination commission. The examination commission evaluates the overall result of the dissertation examination comprehensively with the statement "passed" or "failed".

If, for serious reasons, the doctoral student is unable to take part in the dissertation examination within the specified period and apologizes in writing to the chairman of the examination commission in advance, the chairman of the commission may set an alternative date. Withdrawal from the exam or the unjustified absence of a doctoral student at the exam is assessed by the statement "failed". A doctoral student who has failed the examination may repeat the examination only once, at the earliest three months after the date of the unsuccessful dissertation examination within the deadline stipulated by the chairman of the examination commission. Repeated failure in the dissertation exam is a reason for exclusion from the doctoral degree study.

If, for serious reasons, the doctoral student is unable to participate in the defence (viva) within the specified time, he/she shall apologize in writing in advance to the Dean and also to the chairman of the defence (viva) commission. The Dean, in agreement with the chairman of the defence (viva) commission, will set an alternative date for the defence (viva). The commission evaluates the defence (viva) of the dissertation with a grade, while the classification is performed based on the classification scale, which consists of six classification grades A - FX. In the event that the commission decides not to award an academic degree, the evaluation of the defence (viva) is FX. For the doctoral student who, on the basis of the result of the dissertation defence (viva) or for his/her unjustified non-participation in the defence (viva), was proposed by the defence (viva) commission not to be awarded an academic degree, the Dean will determine in writing the alternative date of the dissertation defence (viva) in the same study programme. The dissertation defence (viva) can be repeated only once, no later than two years after the end of the standard length of study.

Možnosti a postupy účasti na mobilitách študentov

UNIZA supports mobility of its students and staff worldwide, in all available grant programmes and in all programmes and disciplines that are developed and provided at its Faculties and Institutes, as well as in similar study programmes. At the level of the University, the Directive No. 219 – Mobility Programmes of UNIZA Students and Staff Abroad defines the policies, structures, and processes (Link: smernica-UNIZA-c-219.pdf).

For the UNIZA employees, the completion of mobility is conditioned by: a) an application for mobility and a confirmation of acceptance by a partner institution; b) an agreement between individual partner institutions on mobility programmes, or in the case of UNIZA cooperation with another partner institution operating in UNIZA's areas of activity; c) a plan of the mobility with a content, time and financial definition of mobility. At the Faculty the Dean decides on sending an employee on mobility on the basis of an employee's request.

For the students, the completion of a part of their study at another university abroad is conditioned by: a) an application for exchange study and confirmation of acceptance by a partner institution; b) an agreement between individual partner institutions on study; c) an agreement between individual partner institutions on a joint study programme which is also jointly accredited as a joint study programme in accordance with the internal quality assurance system of higher education at UNIZA. The elaborated study plan is discussed by the student with the guarantor of the study programme. The study plan is elaborated primarily from the offer of study courses at a foreign university and contains the equivalents of compulsory and optional study programme courses that the student has prescribed in his/her study programme for the relevant academic year at UNIZA. The study plan is finally approved by the Vice-dean with competence for international cooperation. The Directive No. 219 defines the basic conditions for student mobility abroad, the requirements and rules for drawing up study plans, the student's obligations before and after the mobility. It also defines the procedures for recognition of the learning outcomes of the courses completed at a foreign university. 

Pravidlá dodržiavania akademickej etiky a vyvodzovania dôsledkov

At the level of the University, the policies, structures, and processes are defined by the Directive No. 207 – The Code of Ethics of the University of Žilina in Žilina (Link: https://www.uniza.sk/images/pdf/uradna-tabula/smernice-predpisy/2021/12072021_S-207-2021-Eticky-kodex-UNIZA.pdf) and the Directive No. 201 – Disciplinary Regulations for Students of the University of Žilina in Žilina (Link: 02092021_S-201-2021-Disciplinarny-poriadok-pre-studentov-UNIZA.pdf) and the Directive No. 226 On Copyright Ethics and the Elimination of Plagiarism in the Conditions of the University of Žilina in Žilina.

 

UNIZA is a modern educational and research institution that emphasizes the principle of equal treatment, which consists in prohibiting discrimination on the grounds of sex, religion or belief, race, nationality or ethnic group, disability, age, sexual orientation, marital status and family situation, colour, language, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, gender or other status, or because of a report of crime or other anti-social activity. The Code of Ethics (the Directive No. 207) sets out a set of rules of conduct for university staff and students, thus preventing contentious situations. It defines general ethical principles for students and university staff, principles in pedagogical activities, in scientific research activities, principles in research practice and unacceptable research practices. A part of the UNIZA Code of Ethics is the definition of forms of violation of ethical rules. Complaints are handled by the UNIZA Ethics Commission.

UNIZA supports university teachers and researchers in demonstrating respect for students as well as other UNIZA staff by recognizing their authorship or co-authorship of publications and in publishing their research results. Any form of abuse of the position of university teachers and researchers from a position of superiority for the purpose of appropriating the outputs of students or other UNIZA staff is inadmissible. All UNIZA employees and students are obliged to respect the rules of legal protection of copyright, intellectual property and industrial property rights.

In order to eliminate plagiarism, the UNIZA proceeded to control the originality of not only final, rigorous and habilitation works in accordance with Article 10 of the Directive No. 215 on Final, Rigorous and Habilitation Theses in the Conditions of the University of Žilina in Žilina through the Central Register of Final Theses, but also to control the originality of all types of scientific and professional outputs (publications) of UNIZA employees and students, semester works (term papers) of UNIZA students or works of a similar nature. The result of the control of originality by the anti-plagiarism system applied in the Central Register of Final Theses or by the "Similarity Check" software in the UNIZA University Library, or other similar software, has an important informative value (the Directive No. 226). 

Postupy aplikovateľné pre študentov so špeciálnymi potrebami

In the University environment, the policies, structures, and processes are defined by the Directive No. 198 – Support for Applicants for Study and Students with Specific Needs at the University of Žilina in Žilina (Link: 10082021_Smernica-c-198-Podpora-uchadzacov-o-studium-a-SSP-na-Zilinskej-univerzite-v-Ziline.pdf (uniza.sk)) and the Directive No. 110 – Study Regulations for the Third Degree of the University Study at the University of Žilina in Žilina. (Link: https://www.uniza.sk/images/pdf/uradna-tabula/smernice-predpisy/10122020_S-110-2013-Studijny-poriadok-PhD-v-zneni-D1-a-D3.pdf).

 

At UNIZA and at the UNIZA Faculties, the University as well as the Faculty coordinators for this area provide care for applicants and students with specific needs. The scope of providing appropriate adjustments and support services is regulated by the Decree of the Ministry of Education, Science, Research and Sport of the Slovak Republic No. 458/2012 on the minimum requirements of a student with specific needs. Appropriate adjustments transform changes in the forms of learning, changes in the performance of examinations and in the evaluation of results into the course of study without reducing the requirements for study performance and without changing the nature of the study programme. Adequate adaptation and support services serve to compensate for the consequences of disability and/or learning disabilities and to eliminate barriers to the academic environment and do not favour the position of students with specific needs over ordinary students. The scope of providing appropriate adjustments and support services depend on the specific needs of a particular student, current conditions and requirements for the study, availability and effectiveness of the use of compensatory aids and assistive technologies. Appropriate adjustments are provided so as not to lower the academic standards, requirements for the acquisition of knowledge, skills and competencies necessary for obtaining a qualification in a given study programme. 

Postupy podávania podnetov a odvolaní zo strany študenta

The student freely expresses his/her professional opinions, respects freedom of speech and critical thinking, free exchange of opinions and information. In solving the problems of the educational process and the organization of life at UNIZA, he/she turns to his/her teachers, academic officials and members of the academic senate with confidence.

At the Faculty, in addition to the above options, students can address their suggestions to the tutor of their study group, study advisor (the tutors and study advisors are appointed by the Dean's order at the beginning of the academic year), they can contact student support representatives (groups created for communication and counselling).

Depending on the nature of the complaint, the complaint is dealt with by the person responsible for the relevant area (Dean, Vice-deans, guarantors, Heads of departments), or a relevant commission established (disciplinary, ethical).

At the level of the University, the policies, structures, and processes are defined by the Directive No. 110 – Study Regulations for the Third Degree of the University Study at the University of Žilina in Žilina.

Surveys conducted among graduates of a respective level of higher education in individual study programmes at the Faculty of Security Engineering UNIZA focus mainly on obtaining information regarding the employability of graduates at the labour market, e.g. in relation to the field of study they studied at the Faculty of Security Engineering UNIZA, but attention is also paid to issues aimed at determining the quality and quantity of knowledge, skills and competences acquired during the study in relation to the requirements of employers.

Based on the surveys conducted among the graduates and the analysis of the findings, measures are taken at the Faculty of Security Engineering UNIZA, which are applied to the educational process and all areas related to it. The key findings and results obtained from the surveys and feedback from the graduates are subsequently published on the Faculty of Security Engineering UNIZA website (https://www.fbi.uniza.sk/stranka/vnutorny-system-kvality-fbi). From the last survey conducted among the graduates in 2020, the following findings were obtained. They can be found in the graphs below; the corresponding values are given as percentage.
