ACCESO A PROGRAMAS DE DOCTORADO

Pre-enrolment for new doctoral students Academic year 2025-2026 (1st Phase)

 

Students wishing to apply for the first time for a place on one of the Doctoral Programmes offered by the University of Malaga must submit an application within the registration deadlines established for this purpose.

The application must include, among others, the documents accrediting the degree or degrees that give access to the doctoral studies and the merits claimed. It is very important that you identify your access route and the documentation required in each case and that you consult the website of the doctoral programme you are interested in studying (where you will find information in the sections on teaching staff, recommended profile, scale, specific requirements, etc.) for each one of them.

   NEW FOR APPLICANTS WITH FOREIGN STUDIES FROM OUTSIDE THE EHEA

Those who hold a degree obtained in accordance with foreign education systems outside the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) may access doctoral studies without the need for homologation, after verifying that it accredits a level of training equivalent to that of the official Spanish Master's degree and that it entitles access to doctoral studies in the country where the degree was awarded.

The University of Malaga will verify the level of training of the foreign qualification for access to official doctoral studies.
