PhD Program

PhD programs in the University of Crete School of Medicine are exclusively research based on a specific subject depending on the student's background and research interests. An application for PhD studies to our School of Medicine should be accompanied by a recommendation from a member of our faculty (it is actually a joint application of a PhD candidate and a faculty member) Candidates are requested to prepare an application in collaboration with one of our School members whose contact details are on our websitehttp://www.med.uoc.gr/. The Board of the School Members then decides whether an application can be accepted or not.

According to Greek law, to apply for a position in a PhD program in a Greek University, you need to have a recognition of equivalence and/or correspondence of your degrees from the Hellenic National Academic Recognition and Information Center (https://www.doatap.gr/). According to Law 4957/2022, the initial contact with DOATAP after a candidate applies for PhD studies is made by the Programme 's Secretariat.
