Jointly-Awarded PhD Programs
With International Collaborators (including the Cotutelle)
updated
PhD programs that are Jointly-Awarded with an international collaborator are also available to University of Adelaide domestic and international research students.
A Jointly-Awarded PhD program provides a mechanism:
- To enhance two way international research collaboration,
- To facilitate international study and experience for PhD students,
- To work in two countries and have access to the latest research equipment,
- To access new funding sources.
International students wishing to apply for a Jointly-Awarded PhD with the University of Adelaide as their partner institution must demonstrate, prior to application, that:
- They are already enrolled in a PhD in an approved University,
- They can satisfy the normal admission requirements (including all language proficiency requirements) at the University of Adelaide, and
- Arrangements exist for an approximately equal sharing of candidature between institutions.
A Jointly-Awarded agreement between the University of Adelaide and a French university is also known as a Cotutelle Agreement. Further information about the French Cotutelle Scheme is available from the French Embassy in Australia.
Enquiries concerning participation in Cotutelle or other Jointly-Awarded doctorates should be directed to the Dean of Graduate Studies following review of the information provided in Appendix 3 of the Research Student Handbook.
