The Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) program signifies the completion of advanced research work. This qualification demands an innovative and meaningful advancement in a chosen field of study. Typically spanning at least three years of dedicated full-time research, candidates must produce a comprehensive thesis. The PhD title is conferred by the Council upon recommendation from the relevant faculty's Research Committee (referred to as the Committee) when a candidate demonstrates substantial scholarly contribution. Doctoral dissertations generally should not surpass 100,000 words and are expected to be completed within a three-year full-time study period.
