Forskarutbildning vid institutionen för skoglig mykologi och växtpatologi

Institutionen ger forskarutbildning i ämnet biologi vid skogsvetenskapliga fakulteten och biologi med inriktning mot ekologi, växtpatologi samt mikrobiologi vid fakulteten för naturresurser och jordbruksvetenskap.
Utbildningen är fyraårig varav större delen utgörs av eget forsknings- och avhandlingsarbete och en mindre del av kurser. Vi tre olika tidpunkter i utbildningen gör vi uppföljningar av våra doktorander.
För att vara behörig till forskarutbildning i biologi krävs en magister i biologi eller motsvarande. Utlysta doktorandtjänster annonseras via SLUs sida för lediga doktorandtjänster.
För att öka kvalitén i forskarutbildningen deltar institutionen i forskarskolorna Organism Biology, Focus on Soils and Water och Ecology - its basic and applications som drivs tillsammans med andra institutioner vid SLU.
