Lecturers
VIP staff at the Department of Biology and the Natural History Museum of Denmark at the University of Copenhagen. All employees of the Department of Biology and the Natural History Museum with a minimum of a PhD degree can serve as a supervisor (this also applies to employees on external funding). There must always be a professor, associate professor or assistant professor who has overall responsibility. Professors, associate professors and assistant professors at the Department of Biology and the Natural History Museum can serve as examiners. Post-docs can act as examiners, but only if the professor, associate professor or assistant professor, who has overall responsibility for project supervision, is present and, possibly even, participate in the examination, and together with the examiners are responsible for grading the project.
