Docents at FNT from 1.1.2015

The Title of Docent can be granted to a person who has a doctoral degree and comprehensive knowledge in his or her own discipline, and has through publications or in other ways shown a capacity for independent research and who also has good pedagogical skills. Since 1.4.2017, the Title of Docent is granted without any time limitation. Before, the titles of docent were normally granted for a period of five years at the Faculty of Science and Engineering.
