Admission

How to apply for a PhD programme

Any graduate student (or graduate-to-be) can present their candidacy to the Ph.D. program according to the schedule defined and published by the University of Bologna. Selected candidates must hold a second-level degree (Master's or equivalent) at the beginning of their Ph.D. program (November 1st).

Please check the file and instructions linked on this page for perusing the most recent official document on admission rules (http://www.unibo.it/en/teaching/phd/information-enrolling-phd-programme/how-to-apply-phd-programme).

The selection of candidates proceeds through 2 stages: first, the CV of the candidates is evaluated (through the info each candidate submits electronically by the fixed deadline). Then, the admission committee invites the selected candidates for an interview (also via Teams). The admission committee then publishes the ranking, and the selected Ph.D. candidates are requested to officially enroll in the program at the dedicated University office (via the web).

Enrolled candidates will be awarded a Ph.D. student fellowship funded by the Department of Pharmacy and Biotechnology or an associated partner (see here).
