Applying for doctoral courses within an agreement

KI has established a number of formal collaborative agreements with universities, research institutions and networks that allow doctoral students to apply for doctoral courses at KI on the same conditions as doctoral students admitted to doctoral education at KI.

Important information to prospective course applicants. Remember to include information in your application which collaboration you are part of.

Doctoral students within the below listed agreements are prioritised in the same way as KI doctoral students, according to our general selection criteria. Please note that some courses in the course catalogue are only open to applicants with a KI login. This applies mainly to courses that are compulsory for KI doctoral students. Where relevant, this will be indicated in the course description, but can also be seen by clicking on the blue application button.

However, if you are a doctoral student and part of one of the collaborations listed below, you can still apply for these courses by sending an email to the contact person for the course during the regular application period. Please be sure to include all the details required for a complete application and state which collaboration agreement you are part of. Your application can then be processed manually.
