PhD elements krysspublisert begge

PhD is a three-year study that normally builds on a five-year master’s degree or equivalent. The study includes required coursework comprising a minimum of 30 credits and an independent scientific research project presented in a scientific thesis.

The required coursework and the research project are carried out simultaneously, but it is recommended that the required coursework is completed early in the programme. The coursework must be completed before you may submit the PhD thesis for assessment.

PhD courses

The Faculty of Social and Educational Sciences offers numerous PhD courses. If you want to view all PhD courses available at NTNU you can search in Courses A-Z.

PhD candidates at NTNU must register their courses in Studentweb before 15 September for the Autumn semester and 1 February for the Spring semester. PhD candidates do not pay the semester fee. Please note that some courses may have an earlier registration deadline.
