Europe as the cradle of education and one of the global research hubs is a popular study destination for students who wish to study PhD studies. Numerous countries in Europe offer excellent conditions for modern research and represent traditional destinations for researchers and scholars.
PhD studies are the third cycle of higher education by Bologna system, they last at least 3 years while some programs could last up to 6 years. These level of studies also carry ECTS points and depending on the duration of studies they are worth minimum 180 ECTS.
PhD studies are mainly intended for candidates who wish to engage in science work and pursue academic career and, so their main focus is research work and inventions as well as writing a doctoral dissertation under the supervision of the mentor.
Tuition fees for PhD studies mostly depend on the fact whether the institution is private or public, on destination as well as on the study field. At most public institutions tuition fees are very affordable and start from few hundreds euros per year, while private institutions are significantly pricier and could go up to 15.000 EUR for domestic and EU students and up to 20.000 EUR for international students.
I would like to thank Elena on the amazing service she gave me through the whole process. This was huge step for me and in every moment I had Elena's full support.
Future Option met all our expectations. My husband and I were not sure whether it would be possible to get a student visa. However, they made every effort to ensure that all documents were in the best order. Even now, when we got the visa, Future Option team provides us support and is available for all the questions we have. Best recommendations for this agency!
I am really satisfied with Elena's professional approach. Her support, counseling and commitment were on a very high level through the whole process of gathering documents and visa application.
Last year Elena helped me to enroll the University of the Queensland, she was so responsible person and helped me with the whole procedure.
Elena helped us to fulfill our dreams so I would strongly recommend her to anyone who is thinking of studying and living in Australia. She was extremely professional during the whole procedure and visa application so it was my pleasure to work with her.
Elena is a wonderful person who was patently answering on all questions and who was not giving false hope. She was always positive and trustworthy.
