Time to apply for doctoral courses
The course catalogue for the autumn semester of 2025 is now open for application! Please note that the application period is three weeks, with the final application day being 6 May.
Before applying, we recommend carefully reading of the information on Applying for doctoral courses, even though you have applied via Fubas before. A few things, such as a written motivation, can be prepared in advance to make your application process smother.
To apply, go to the web page Course catalogue and vacancies and click on the link to the course catalogue. Follow the recommendations below.
Please note that filter choices and language selection for the web page only are available on a larger screen (please be aware of this if you are using a mobile phone).
Recommendations
- Use the filter to see courses that are open for application, since previous semesters’ courses also are listed. A blue button indicates that the course is open for application.
- Use the English version of the course catalogue to access the information on every course (as most courses are in English and thus only presented in that language). Change the language for courses that are given only in Swedish. The language selector is found in the upper right corner of the web page.
- Open the specific course information by clicking on the plus sign beside the apply button! This is where you will find any specific information about the course occasion. Note that some courses are given alternately in English or Swedish – this is where you can see which one applies to each occasion.
Things to consider
- If you have a KI-ID – log in and apply with this! This will help the course provider to prioritise correctly in the selection process. You also ensure that the correct e-mail address is given in the application.
- Save the confirmation email to keep track of the courses you applied for.
- Reply to the admission notification within 7 days! If you don't reply in time, your place will be passed on to the next reserve, if there are many applicants for the course. You will receive a reminder email the day before the deadline.
- If you have applied for several course occasions for the same course (and semester), please only accept one.
Important dates
15 April: Start of application period.
6 May: Last application day.
7 May: Course providers will begin processing admissions. Admission for most courses will likely be completed within a month. However, some courses may have a waiting list, in which case reserves will be admitted until the course is full.
