The supervisor must be a full or associate professor or a researcher from either the Faculty of Engineering, or an external lecturer teaching in the study programme.

The supervisor may be joined by a co-supervisor who collaborates in supporting and guiding the student in the research activities and in the writing of the thesis. The co-supervisor can be a full or associate professor, researcher or PhD student from the Faculty of Engineering, or an external lecturer teaching in the study programme. The co-supervisor can also be a researcher belonging to national or international universities or research centres, or a reference person belonging to a companies or public or private institution and actively involved in the thesis project.
