Invitation to Participate in the Work of Admission Committees
Dear Doctoral Candidates, Dear Colleagues,
On September 23–25, admission interviews for our Doctoral School will take place. We would like to remind you that, as the Doctoral Student Council, we are also entitled to appoint observers who may cooperate with individual admission committees and take part in their work.
According to point 3, §5 of Annex No. 1 to Senate Resolution No. 4.16.12.2024:
“The body of the Doctoral Student Council, as specified in the Council’s regulations, may appoint its representative to participate in the work of the admission committee as an observer.”
The observer:
- remains impartial in performing their duties,
- may present comments concerning the work of the committee to its chair,
- may attend the meetings of the admission committee,
- is not a member of the committee and participates in its work without voting rights.
The role of the observer is an important element of ensuring transparency in the recruitment process, and one that we should actively make use of. It is also an opportunity to gain deeper insight into the procedures, the work of the committees, and the perspectives of applicants. Participation in this process will also enable us to more effectively support future and current doctoral candidates, respond to their needs, and contribute to maintaining the high quality of our academic community.
If you would like to get involved in this year’s admission process and participate in the interviews, please submit your candidacy as soon as possible to the Council’s email address: samorzad.doktorantow@uken.krakow.pl
We warmly encourage you to take part — your presence and active involvement truly make a difference in the quality of academic life. We especially invite those who are ready to participate in the interviews related to admissions in their respective disciplines.
Meanwhile, we wish all applicants to the Doctoral School the best of luck in the ongoing recruitment process!
With best regards,
Kamil Rajkowski, MA
Chair of the Doctoral Student Council
University of National Education Commission in Kraków
