WHAT THE PhD IS?
The PhD degree is the highest university academic qualification. This allows the doctor to carry out scientific research tasks, both nationally and internationally and enables high-level professional development in the public and private sectors.

WHY TO BE A DOCTOR
The doctorate will give you an intellectual maturity that few educational processes can provide.

ACCESS TO THE PhD
In general, in order to access a Doctorate Program, it will be necessary to hold a Spanish Official Degree or equivalent, and a University Master's Degree.

DURING YOUR PhD TRAINING
In addition to the scientific research, it is important to know the actions that will be fundamental throughout the development of the PhD training.

SUPERVISED RESEARCH
The Doctorate is a training period entirely supervised by professional researchers. This supervision translates into the assignment of a tutor and a director who will be in charge of supervising the work of the doctoral student.

FINANCING
The International Doctoral School has been guaranteeing free of charge all training activities, as well as training in English, German, French, Portuguese and Italian, also free of charge.
In addition, the University of Almeria, the Autonomous Community and the Spanish State offer different types of aid for research and mobility.
