3. Doctoral training

3.1. Number of students who in 2000-2006

Give the number of Master degrees and of those, new post-graduate students to indicate the ratio enrolled in the doctoral training.

	2000	2001	2002	2003	2004	2005	2006
Completed their Master degree^1)
Started post-graduate studies^2)

¹⁾ MSc students are enrolled at the host universities and complete their degree there. HIIT personnel is also involved in supervising MSc theses.

²⁾ PhD students are enrolled at the host universities, not at HIIT. However, a large number of PhD students have been working at HIIT during 2000-2006, their person-months being almost 50 percent of the total.

3.2. List of doctoral dissertations in 2000-2006 and present employment

If at least half of the doctoral dissertation has been supervised and done at a research institute, the research institute can also list the doctoral dissertation as its own outcome. In this case indicate also the university (in year of completion) where the doctoral dissertation has been presented for approval. In present employment, indicate the type of organisation (university, business company, research institute, state, municipality or other).
