Mobility for doctoral students

You are a PhD student and would like to stay in our university. See also the platform Fund-it http://www.fundit.fr/en

The International Mobility Department supports the future PhD student and the host laboratory to set up the joint supervision thesis.

Aim

The joint supervision thesis allows a PhD student (from the University of Lille or from a partner university) to carry out a doctoral thesis between his home institution and a host institution abroad. The distribution of workload and fees is predetermined.

At the end of the thesis the PhD student receives a PhD diploma from the University of Lille and an equivalent diploma from the partner university abroad.

Administrative provisions

  • Agreement

An agreement setting the administrative and teaching modalities signed by both institutions for each joint supervision thesis.

  • Mobility and thesis duration

The mobility is divided into alternative periods in each institution and will be of, at least, 12 months, and spread over the thesis duration.

  • Enrolment

The PhD student must enroll each year in each institution, complying with the enrolment conditions of each country.

PhD students pay the enrolment fees in one of the two institutions and are exempted in the other institution (by presenting a proof of payment)
