General eligibility for doctoral requires that you have:

• completed a degree at the advanced (master鈥檚) level,
• fulfilled course requirements amounting to at least 240 higher鈥慹ducation credits, of which at least 60 credits at the advanced level, or
• acquired essentially equivalent knowledge in some other way, in Sweden or abroad.

In addition to the general eligibility requirements, each university may set its own specific entry requirements. These requirements vary between subjects and institutions. They must be necessary for the doctoral student to benefit from the programme. They may concern knowledge from higher鈥慹ducation studies or equivalent, specific professional experience, language proficiency, or other conditions. The specific eligibility requirements usually involve the applicant having knowledge within a particular subject area needed to pursue the doctoral studies.

Each doctoral programme has a general study syllabus, established by the relevant faculty or board. The general study syllabus specifies the specific eligibility requirements for each doctoral programme. You can find LiU鈥檚 doctoral subjects and their study syllabi on the page Third cycle subject areas.
