Departments, research fields and supervising professors

The Aalto Doctoral Programme in Engineering offers doctoral education in 8 research fields. Each doctoral student is appointed a supervising professor who represents the research field approved for the student.

Research fields and supervising professors

There are three departments at the School of Engineering. Read about the research focus of each department on their pages.

Ombudspersons and support for challenges

Ombudspersons are voluntary professors with solid experience in academic practices whom doctoral students can contact confidentially in challenges related to the thesis work. In case of challenging situations, we also have a support system of e.g. study psychologists and workplace mediators.
