Links to other study programmes The Interdisciplinary Doctoral Programme in Statistics is both horizontally and vertically linked to other study programmes at the University of Ljubljana. Horizontal exchange enables students to fulfil their elective course requirements from other doctoral programmes at the University of Ljubljana in agreement with their mentors and course lecturers. The vertical link is inherent in the very design of the study programme through its syllabus and the possibilities of choosing different courses. Furthermore, it is possible to exchange study courses with comparable programmes from other universities, including distance learning programmes. The quality and comparability of courses must be evaluated by the Programme Council. International exchange takes place on the basis of international contracts and bilateral agreements. International exchange is also possible through collaboration in mobility programmes for students and professors. The programme is also open to foreign students.
