Research Tilburg School of Humanties and Digital Sciences

External PhD candidates

As an external PhD candidate, you are not employed by Tilburg School of Humanities and Digital Sciences (TSHD). The Graduate School distinguishes between two types of external PhD candidates: candidates who are financially compensated or obtain time by an employer to write their doctoral thesis; and people who use their own time and resources for their PhD. All external PhD candidates must have a supervisor who is employed by TSHD.

External PhD candidates will not be charged any enrollment fee and there are no deadlines for enrollment.

The left-hand side menu will walk you through the different steps of the PhD program.
