With an innovative and digital approach, Selinus University represents a modern alternative to traditional higher education, making advanced studies accessible on a global scale.

Doctor of Philosophy (PhD).

As graduate researchers, PhD students are usually required to show competence, master their topic research but also carry out an original thesis so as to foster new academic contributions in their knowledge field. A PhD via distance learning is original academic research in a specific branch of human knowledge. The candidate works autonomously and his/her project culminates in a final doctoral thesis.

Unlike any other traditional campus-based PhD, Selinus PhD by Research does not have semesters splitting; it rather consists of independent and autonomous theoretical research on a specific academic area. This research is implemented in a final thesis that students shall complete within 24 months.

The Distance Learning PhD is earned after successfully completing and defending the final doctoral thesis in the academic major that has been chosen. The \"Doctor of Philosophy\" is the only PhD that can be obtained via Distance Learning. It should be quite clear that any laboratory method or professional practice cannot occur online or through any distance learning system.

The main requirement for a distance learning PhD by Research is to submit and defend the final thesis whose minimum length has to be 90/100 pages. That will be reviewed and evaluated by an academic committee of the Selinus University. In some cases, previous candidates’ publications may be relevant for PhD purposes. In case the thesis credits are not sufficient, in order to have all the required doctoral credits, additional in-depth reports (about 15-20 pages each) based on textbooks may also be requested.

A PhD is often a very popular job requirement in many work areas. Especially in developing countries, with a lack of basic job training, the Doctor of Philosophy is more and more required not only for highly qualified professionals, but also for multinationals, non-governmental organizations, and private companies’ employments. Employees are asked for an academic \"certification\" higher than a Bachelor\'s or a Master\'s degree.
