We are delighted to announce that Enrique, one of our outstanding PhD students, has received the prestigious Extraordinary Doctorate Award from the Doctoral School of the University of the Basque Country!
The award ceremony took place on June 20th at 18:00 hours in the Mitxelena Auditorium of Bizkaia Aretoa, Bilbao, during the “Doktorego Eguna” event, themed “Open the Door to Our Doctorate.” This event celebrated the Extraordinary Doctorate Awards of the 2020/21 and 2021/22 academic years.
The Doctoral School (DOKe) organized the event, which was presided over by the Vice-Rector of Postgraduate and Continuing Education of UPV/EHU, Montse Maritxalar. Gotzone Barandika, the director of DOKe, presented the doctoral study offerings (67 programs) spanning all branches of knowledge and discussed institutional accreditation.
This year, the event focused on the contribution of doctoral theses and doctoral training to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) defined in the EHUagenda 2030.
