Program details

Overview

Intellectual exchange among teaching staff, researchers and students from Slovenia and abroad, working across the humanities and social sciences, underpins this doctoral programme. It promises an international academic setting with an individual approach to study. Candidates specialise in one of three areas: literary studies, history, or migration and intercultural relations. In January 2017 the university's Senate lengthened the programme from three years to four, and the four-year version has been running since 2017/2018; those already on the three-year route finish it as planned. The page also lists student seminars, schedules, scientific board meetings and articles by doctoral students, along with enrolment details for 2024/25 and a list of supervisors. The award is a Doctoral diploma, with the title Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.).
