Applications from candidates who are already enrolled in a Ph.D. programme at the University of Urbino will not be considered.

The suitability of the foreign qualification (Master's degree) is ascertained by the Selection Board appointed for the specific Ph.D. programme in compliance with the legislation in force in Italy and in the country where the degree was issued as well as with international treaties or agreements in the field of recognition of qualifications for the continuation of studies.
Candidates in possession of a qualification obtained abroad are admitted to the selection procedure under condition. If admitted to the Ph.D. Programme, they must deliver the following documentation:

Should the documentation provided by the candidate certify the invalidity of the qualification in the country of achievement for enrolment in an academic course similar to the Ph.D. Programme, the student loses his position in the Ph.D. Programme and is required to return the Ph.D. scholarship eventually perceived.
