Ph.D. by Research

Studying for a Ph.D. through UNYP

One of the core values held by the University of New York in Prague is excellence in research. Offered at our partner, New York College Athens, in coordination with the University of Bolton, students will be able to earn their Ph.D. UNYP encourages graduates in all disciplines to consider studying for a doctorate – the highest academic award conferred by this university – or an MPhil. To this end, UNYP offers its students through its partners the opportunity to study for a Ph.D. or MPhil in any subject area in which we have relevant research expertise, in association with the relevant Academic Group, Research Centre, or Research Institute.

The Ph.D. by research is awarded to a candidate who presents and defends a thesis, after having critically investigated and evaluated an approved topic which results in an independent and original contribution to knowledge and demonstrates an understanding of the appropriate research methods within the chosen field. This Ph.D. program is designed for those who wish to pursue supervised research at the doctoral level, leading to the publication of a traditional doctoral thesis of sufficient quality to be deemed an original and independent contribution to the existing body of knowledge, and which justifies the award of a doctorate. It is possible to apply and register for the doctorate either directly or via the MPhil route.

Career opportunities with a doctorate from the University of Bolton

A doctorate is much more than the most advanced qualification in your specialist area of study. Successfully completing a Ph.D. is proof that you have mastered a set of transferable and highly desirable skills and qualities such as critical analysis, project management, high-level problem-solving, leadership and mentoring, challenging and providing alternative perspectives on received wisdom, advanced research, and presentation skills, self-confidence, determination, and persistence. 

Ph.D. graduates have more successful careers and increased earnings than any other graduate. They are seen are the professional “movers and shakers” in the workplace, the employees who bring innovation and enterprise to the table.

Qualifying criteria

Doctorates are awarded to candidates who can demonstrate:

(i) the employment of original research or other advanced scholarship to create and interpret new knowledge, producing a body of work that is of a quality that satisfies peer review, extends the limits of understanding within the subject, and is worthy of publication;

(ii) the systematic acquisition and understanding of a substantial body of knowledge which is at the cutting edge of an academic discipline or area of professional practice;

(iii) the general ability to conceptualize, design, and implement a research project for the generation of new knowledge, applications, or understanding within the discipline, and to make adaptations and adjustments in the event of new issues arising;

(iv) a detailed understanding of the appropriate techniques for research and advanced academic inquiry within the discipline.

Moreover, the University would expect Ph.D. candidates to demonstrate the ability to:

(a) make and defend informed judgments on complex issues in specialist fields, often in the absence of complete data, and to be able to communicate their ideas and conclusions clearly and effectively to specialist and non-specialist audiences;

(b) undertake research and development at an advanced level, whether pure or applied, contributing substantially to the development within the discipline of new techniques, ideas, or approaches;

(c) demonstrate the exercise of personal responsibility and autonomous initiative in complex and unpredictable situations, in academic, professional, and similar environments, and any other professional qualities and transferable skills that would be reasonably expected at this academic level.

Research Subject Areas

New York College Athens and the University of New York in Prague, in association with the University of Bolton, can support Ph.D. and MPhil students with research interests in the following subject areas:

• Art and Design
• Accounting and Business
• Built Environment & Civil Engineering
• Community Studies

• Materials, Research & Innovation
• Mass Observation and Worktown Studies
• Medical, Biomedical, and Life Sciences

Admissions to Ph.D.

Requirements for admission to the doctoral programme of study in the academic year 2024/2025

• The requirement for admission to the doctoral programme of study is the attainment of a degree of education (university education of the third degree) which would be acceptable for admission to the doctoral programme at a university in the country of origin of an applicant. However, the final decision regarding recognition of a respective qualification is issued by the Rectorate of Charles University, not by the Faculty.
• The full-time form of study includes the involvement of a doctoral student in projects and activities of a department whose scope of scholarship covers the topic of a respective dissertation thesis (civil law, international law, etc.). Applicants are strongly advised to contact in advance not only a potential supervisor of their doctoral study, but also the head of a respective department. Should there be no preliminary agreement between an applicant and a respective department it is advised to apply for a part-time (combined) form of study, which is less demanding as to the presence of a student at the faculty.

These requirements were adopted by the Academic Senate of the Faculty of Law of Charles University under Article 8 (4) d) of the Constitution of the Faculty of Law of Charles University on 22   June 2023.

The application for admission is to be submitted not later than on 30 April 2024 .

I. Information about the admissions procedure

In the academic year 2024-2025 , the Faculty of Law of Charles University (“Faculty”) offers study in one doctoral programme conducted in the English language, entitled “Theoretical Legal Sciences – Law and Legal Theory in European Context”.

The doctoral programme of study focuses on scholarly research and independent creative activities in the respective research field. The admissions procedure to the doctoral programme of study at the Faculty in the academic year 2024-2025 will be carried out under section 47 and following of Act No. 111/1998 Sb., to regulate higher education institutions, as amended (“Higher Education Act”), and in compliance with the Code of Admissions Procedure of Charles University.

An applicant may apply for each form (full-time; part-time/combined) of the doctoral study in a separate application; however, it is possible to submit both applications at the same time. 

The Dean of the Faculty will appoint an examination board that will assess the extent of an applicant’s knowledge in the chosen programme of study, particularly in broader contexts.

Under Article 4 (5) of the Code of Admissions Procedure of Charles University, the Faculty will send an invitation to the entrance examination to an applicant through the electronic Student Information System not later than thirty days before the date of the examination. If the Faculty sends an invitation to an alternative entrance examination date, said time period may be shortened as necessary. An applicant will receive a password to sign into the electronic Student Information System after he/she has filed an application for study.

II. Organisation of, and requirements for the entrance examination

The entrance examination is held publicly in one round and taken orally. The examination is taken in English. The purpose of the entrance examination is to assess primarily the relevant academic knowledge of an applicant, as well as his or her initial capability of carrying out autonomous scientific activities and research within the selected programme of study.

The maximum total score to reach at the entrance examination is 60 points . The overall number of points achieved by an applicant is composed of the number of points reached within individual parts of the entrance examination.

The range of points in individual parts of the entrance examination is as follows:

• Debate over the presented project of a dissertation – at least 7 pages along with a list of references (0 - 30 points);
• Bonus points awarded for an applicant´s understanding of the content of study regarding (a) his or her  plan to be involved in scientific projects and research of the expected training unit (e.g. academic department), and in international research cooperation;  (b) linking his or her dissertation topic and outline with the research profile of his or her doctoral student training unit; (c) consent of a selected  supervisor to supervise the applicant´s project of the intended dissertation (0-10 points).
• Assessment of the recent academic and research activities of an applicant (0-10 points).
• Proving the knowledge resulting from studying relevant scientific literature within a wider context of the intended dissertation project (0-10 points).

The minimum overall number of points for an applicant to attain at the entrance examination in order to be admitted to study is 40 points .

The Dean will decide, as based on the recommendation of the Admission Commission, the maximum number of students admitted to the full-time form into the doctoral programme. The number of those admitted will be established with respect to:

• equal distribution of full-time doctoral students to different academic units,
• actual number of students in full-time form of study in the respective academic unit,
• the pursue for internationalisation in doctoral programme.

If a greater number of applicants than the maximum number of admissions achieves a score of at least 40 points in the admission examination for the full-time form of study, the order of the best applicants is decisive. Those applicants who have achieved the highest number of points are therefore admitted to the full-time form of study.

Not later than within 30 days from the entrance examination, the Dean will issue a decision regarding admission or non-admission of the applicant to the doctoral programme of study. The Faculty will deliver the decision by restricted delivery (to the applicant´s own hands) via a licensed operator of postal services. The decision to admit an applicant to the doctoral program of study may be sent to the applicant via the electronic Student Information System if the applicant had expressed consent with such delivery in the electronic application for admission.

III. Dates of examination

Regular date:                    4   June 2024

Alternative date:              18  J une 2024

The Dean may grant an opportunity to sit for an examination on the alternative date to an applicant who has so applied no later than three days after the regular date of examination, provided that the applicant was not able to take part in the regular examination for serious and substantiated reasons, mainly health reasons. Regular study abroad as preparation for study at a higher education institution is considered a justified reason for granting an alternative date. No further alternative date is permissible. The applications for the alternative date are filed and disposed of through the electronic Student Information System of the University (Article 14 (6) of the Code of Admissions Procedure of Charles University.
