The UOC, through its research institute "the IN3", has opened the application period for access to the PhD on the Information and Knowledge Society. This year, twenty places associated to research groups or researchers are being offered. Likewise, the IN3 has announced ten grants for those undertaking their PhD studies as a full-time commitment and with physical presence at the Institute's headquarters in Castelldefels's Mediterranean Technology Park.
Opening of the application period for access to the PhD on the Information and Knowledge Society at the UOC
The PhD on the Information and Knowledge Society is based on an interdisciplinary perspective that involves different theoretical standpoints and different methodological tools. The links between the different social, economic, political and cultural systems mean that the traditional disciplinary barriers have to be overcome so as to be able to conduct a thorough and in-depth analysis. This perspective is based on the relationship between the PhD programme and the Research Groups recognised by the UOC. The PhD is designed in line with the directives established by the Royal Decree regulating postgraduate courses (Royal Decree 56/2005, January 21 2005). The access requirements, study plan, places on offer, conditions for grants and application form can be consulted on the PhD's website.
