The studies in each field are managed by the Departmental Committee for research students. The Committee issues detailed guidelines relevant to the field and coordinates all activities including admission, housing, fellowships, courses, research proposal, laboratory work, and evaluation of the work.
The Departmental Committees are supervised by the University Committee for Research Students which is headed by the Vice Rector.
Eligibility
Graduates with master's degree with a cumulative grade of at least 80 and master's thesis grade of at least 85 may apply for studies towards the PhD degree.
Studens who completed their undergraduate studies with distinction may apply for the direct course of studies towards the PhD degree.
The above are minimum requirements. Some departmental committees have additional requirements.
Admission

The applicant must submit all required documents to the Departmental Committee, including curriculum vitae, a record of studies, and any other relevant material that is requested.
