Admission

To apply for a doctorate at Sorbonne University, you must first identify a doctoral research project.

Admission

For this, you can:

  • Consult the websites of the doctoral schools related to the scientific theme you are interested in, 
  • Consult the offers of our doctoral programs
  • Get directly in touch with a researcher or academic researcher at Sorbonne University who is working in your field of interest. 

Depending on the doctoral school your research unit reports to, the recruitment campaign and admission process may differ, particularly in terms of selection and funding. We therefore invite you to contact the doctoral school to which you wish to apply.

A doctorate application must be approved by the project leader (the future thesis director) and the director of the research unit. The director of the doctoral school proposes the admission to the president of the university, who makes the final decision.
