PhD abroad

Undertake a PhD at a foreign university.

PhDs are considered the highest degree awarded and are intended to train students for research and university teaching.  

It is therefore presented as the continuation of academic studies, after the master’s degree, with a variable duration of 3 or 4 years, depending on the country in which it is carried out.

The PhD is ideal for those who wish to pursue a career in university teaching and for public administration employees who want to make a career move.

For the latter, the possibility of taking a three-year paid leave from work to devote themselves to study is open.

The Study with Athena team will support you in planning your PhD project, following you every step of the way.

The PhD can be comfortably carried out in Italy, and meetings with the university lecturer can also be held online. Our team will organise these meetings.

Below is a list of the PhD courses offered by Study with Athena:

Studying abroad is a unique opportunity to obtain a university degree by studying at qualified universities and coming into contact with international environments. Abroad, you will learn to take a global view of the legal world, adapting to the changing times.  
You will be able to obtain, without worries, degrees at our prestigious universities that, once completed, will be valid throughout Europe thanks to the European directives established to promote the right to study.  
At our universities, you will find well-trained and helpful lecturers who can value each student and provide a comprehensive and competent teaching programme. Moreover, unlike in Italy, where too much emphasis is placed on theoretical teaching, abroad, the study of the subject is largely centred on practice, during which you will be able, from the very first years of your career, to put into practice the theoretical knowledge you have acquired and become familiar with the professional environment.  
Furthermore, after one year and thanks to European directives, you will also be allowed to continue your studies at an Italian university if you wish. This includes the validation and credit recognition of examinations taken abroad.  
Finally, do not underestimate the better job placement opportunities that studying abroad certainly gives you. You will enrich your CV and learn what it means to work in an international environment.  
Study with Athena will always be there during your academic years and ready to meet all your needs, personally taking care of the bureaucratic side. This way, you can approach your studies with peace of mind, expand your knowledge and enjoy life abroad. So what are you waiting for? Contact us now!
