WELCOME TO Third-cycle STUDIES AT UNIVERSITY WEST
Do you want to continue your studies after your master`s degree? Then you should consider to become a PhD-student. Postgraduate education is equivalent to four years of full-time studies (240 credits) and ending with a PhD. After two years (120 credits), a licentiate degree can be obtained.
At University West we offer doctoral and licentiate degrees in the following three subject areas:

The doctoral program consists of 240 HE credits, or four years of full-time studies. Students take a number of courses determined by the subject of their research and write a dissertation. The results of your research are presented at a public defence
of your doctoral thesis. Throughout your studies as a doctoral student, you will have two supervisors to guide you and give you advice.
