The doctoral council at Södertörn University brings together 16 representatives from across the university’s five institutions, five research areas, and a range of boards and committees, to address matters that impact the learning and working environment for PhD students. This includes raising concerns with university leadership and administrators, identifying development opportunities, sharing information to ensure it reaches all PhDs, and actively contributing to the best experience possible for doctoral studies at Södertörn University.

To share information about general PhD-related matters that you feel should be taken up by the council, please email us at doctoralcouncil@sh.se. You can also use this email address to share seminars, workshops or other opportunities that may be of interest to a broad range of PhD students. Send a brief description and any necessary details and we can include these in regular newsletters or email communications.

If your question or concern is specific to your institution or research area, please refer to your local representative.

The Council for Research Ethics is an advisory body to the vice-chancellor and has two primary tasks:

• The Council must work to increase knowledge at the university, regarding issues relating to research ethics, such as through training in ethical review and the management of research data.
• The Council must evaluate and investigate suspicions of scientific misconduct and other deviations from good research practice, as well as advising the vice-chancellor in decision-making, based on the management procedure for this area established by the university (see the management procedure).

The Södertörn Academic Studies series is mainly comprised of monographs and anthologies that present definitive research results from projects carried out at Södertörn University. The series are open to all fields of research and disciplines, but as a large majority of research at Södertörn University focuses on the Baltic Sea Region this series addresses the social, political, economic and cultural developments in countries bordering the Baltic Sea.
