- How to apply for a PhD in Italy?
This question needs professional answers from someone who has experienced every bit of the process themselves. I'm sure you are familiar with my channel as a PhD student in Italy. I am Sam, and last year, I was able to win a scholarship for my PhD program in Italy.
The first thing that you have to pay attention to is that studying a PhD in Italy and the application process is very different from other European countries and also very different from a PhD program in the USA or Canada. If you want to get into a PhD in the USA or Canada, you first have to find the professor you want to work with (your future supervisor) from each university website and then email them accordingly. This can be very tedious since they receive thousands of emails every day.
Fortunately, for applying for a PhD in Italy, there is no need to contact the professor, and the only need you have to do is to apply to the university.
The first step to applying is to remember that the "call" for application for each university is different; some of them open as early as February, while others open in Summer. So, you actually have a long period to apply and a great chance to prepare your documents in case you are missing a thing or two.
Then you have to go to the PhD program page on the university website and download the file of the Call. This file is everything!
Read it carefully; it tells you to step by step all the things you need to do in case you want to apply.
**IMPORTANT NOTE**
Many universities like Milano University (Politecnico di Milano) have their own template for almost all the files you have to upload; hence it is mandatory to upload them in the required format. Each year many applicants are rejected based on the fact that they are too carefree when they are applying and don't read the call carefully.
Then you go to the university's websites and create an online profile in order to be able to upload your files. You pay a small fee for submitting the application, and then you wait for the results to be published.
This is the very basic procedure for PhD application. Extra information about the interview and what to do next can be found in the video; be sure to watch it.
By sharing this video you will be helping me to create better content, and also you will be helping many students out there who need advice on their PhD journey.

How to write a well written email to prof for phd
In Italy, it is not necessary to do so. But, if you are talking about other countries I have to do a separate video. I will mention the steps for you:
1. Go to the professor's personal page (some have their own university page) some are on Linkedin, some on google scholar, etc.
2. Pay attention to his "areas of interest" during the past 3 years (maybe more).
3. Try to find the articles that are somehow connected or COULD be connected to your research proposal.
4. Try to write two short paragraphs, showing you have read his articles and HOW your expertise can create an opportunity to work together.
Other parts of the email are more general which I will make a video about.
I'm busy these days with revising my paper/ Sorry and good luck :)
@@SamanMovahed ok sir thank you , this video is truly amazing
Kindly also make a seperate video how to apply for phd ij USA or EU universities
@@Uditm1 Of course, as soon as I submit the revision I'll get back to making videos. Thank you for your support.
Is there no possibility to email a professor in italy? Or is it just that its better off by following the admissions?
You are love ❤
Very helpful information, thank you. May you please do a video of preparation for the PhD interview?
Thank you, I will try to make more videos relating the PhD program.
Are you open to answer specific questions on PhD interviews
@@annashimbulu6071 what do you mean?
It was useful 👌🏻🌱thanks for sharing your experience
My pleasure 😊
Wow very useful informations👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you, share it please with anyone who you think it will be useful to :)
The explanation is good and the information is important. Can you explain to me the registration first, given that I have a master’s degree in management and I would like to complete my PhD studies. What are the requirements for that You could choose more specialization from the program in the Ph.D. study
Hi, the registration is very straightforward, it is completely online, and is done via each universities' portal. You create a profile and you start the process. The important thing is that you check each university to see if they have you major, in your case, "management: and then you start by waiting for the call to be published for you major, the call is simply the time and the requirements that you need for your major. Then based on that you start the process and apply.
I'm so lucky that a found an environmental engineer as soon as I started searching for phD programmes. I'm an environmental engineer 😎😎
I am glad that my video could help good luck on your journey 😎
@@SamanMovahed thanks
Tnx Sam it was useful
You are absolutely welcome :)
Thanks Dr
Plz make a video on international student's Living expensive too.
Thank you for your comment. I have changed the context of this channel and I don’t make PhD videos anymore.
I have seen that some Italian universities want us to sign and stamp our CV and research proposal. From whom should I get them? Can I get it from a professor who taught me in my previous institution? Kindly let me know.
It is the first time I am hearing this. So, I dont have any idea.
How can I apply for Sapienza University PhD level?
You have to go to the university website. Find your major. Download the pdf file called the “call” and based on the instructions you apply.
so nice explanation
Thank you for your kind comment
Hii, thanks for the info.
I recently finished my masters degree in Italy. Right now, I am working in University as a researcher. I have seen new opportunities in the PhD program. I want to apply for this PhD course but my visa status - work visa. Can I change it from work to student?
Hi from what I have heard it is very difficult to impossible to go back from work to study
Thank you for great information. How can we have research proposal format?
Ressearch proposals have some general formats that you can find by searching on the internet. However, usually, universities specify things or some of them even have their own template in Word that you download and write in it.
very nice dear sir, jazakallah
Thank you for your nice words 🤩
Excellent brother! Acceptance letter is not required for Phd application?
What do you mean by acceptance letter? How can you have acceptance letter before applying?
Very informative video
Thank you, I plan to release more videos like this, tell me if you had a specific topic on mind :)
I have 3.82/4 cgpa im MPhil physics and 3.2/4 in Bs physics. My thesis was on Synthesis of silver nanoparticles using curcuma longa for MCF -7. Plz just let me know am i eligible to get scholarship in italy. Thank you sir 🙂
Hi, being eligible has many other factors. And GPA is only one of these factors. Your GPA is good but how many scientific publications do you have? Do you have a well-written research proposal? These are all important factors in you being eligible for scholarship.
Most of people on CZcams said that when u applied for PhD in Italy you will automatically applied for an scholarship,Lil bit confusion, What about public uni and private uni. Scholarship.
And I said the same thing. All Ph.D. positions in Italy come with scholarships, it's just that there are two to three types of them and there are no guarantee that you will get them.
Please make a video on research proposal to Italy universities.
Hi, of course it's on my list.
Where are you from basically ?
Sir Degree Transcript has needed for applying or Marksheet/Certificate is enough..
It depends on the university, some of them require a transcript. But it doesn't matter if they are translated to Italian or not.
Hi, my MS data Science will complete in September 2024 and want to start my PhD after that right now I have no publication. I will send my research for publication for review after June can you guide me the best time to apply for PhD in Italy due to my age I am afraid they will allow me to continue my education second thing my family, will they accompany me when selected for my PhD. my C.G.P.A is near to 3.75 right now but final semester need to add which I will get in September
Hi, the application time for each university in Italy is different. So, if you want to start in September you should be applying now. You have to check university websites which ones are open for your major. Then apply for each one individually from their portal (website) It is necessary to have a very good research proposal since your GPA is not very high. Is your MS in English?
As for the family, in Italy the money they give you is paid monthly and if you get the scholarship this amount is nearly 1200 Euros, considering that the rent is high in most cities (around 500Euros) just for a single room you have to be very careful if you want your family living with you.
Hey dude.. I need your guidance on writing the proposal
Sorry I don’t provide such services
Hey bro,
Could u plz tell me that is it possible to apply for the PHD program just with Provisional Certificate!?
And secondly, is there any lemitation to apply for the phd regarding CGPA or final percentage of the master degree!???
Hi, to answer your first question you usually need a master’s degree certificate from a prominent university in your country to be able to apply for the PhD program. The answer to your second question depends on the university you are going to apply for, some universities mention a limit for the GPA with which you can apply and you have to check this limit from the university website. But generally the higher the GPA the better your chances are for getting accepted.
Can tou please tell me, What questions are asked in interview?
The questions depend on the universities. Some ask you to present your research proposal so you have to have it in PowerPoint format. Some others ask you about yourself and why you want continue to Ph.D. It's different
Hi, is there any bank statement require to get admission in PHD in any uni of Itlay??
For getting admission no. It is usually required by the embassy for the visa.
If there are no specific mentions about the requirement of reference letters, is it still necessary to attach them?
Some universities don't require "recommendation letters" and they don't mention it in the file of the call. In this case it is not necessary to upload them and usually there won't be a place for uploading them on the online portal. If they say that it is optional, I recommend uploading them as they can increase your score in the evaluation.
@@SamanMovahed Thank you so much 😊❤️
Publications are necessary for Phd scholarship. ??
If someone's have no publications what are his chances of getting admission???
Ok first let me say that getting admission is different from getting the scholarship. You may get eligible and get the admission but not get the scholarship. In this case you could use the regional scholarship provided by Italy. If course the amount is much less (6000 Euros) yearly.
Now to answer your question remember that a good research proposal, and a good CV are more important than publications. Because publications have a maximum score from the total 70 of the first part. So, even if you don't have any publications there is still a chance that you can win the scholarship.
@@SamanMovahed thank you bro. Your honest reply means alot❤️❤️❤️ more success to u.
is spouse available in italy for phd programme??? is research paper mandatory for phd application?? i have thesis paper..can i apply with that??
For PhD having some published papers can increase your chance since many people are applying nowadays. But try to have a strong research proposal when you apply it is very important. No spouses are not available for PhD here. They can join you of course but no additional fund is allocated to them.
I have completed MBBS from Bangladesh. Can I directly apply for PHD in Italy?
Hi if MBBS is considered Bachelor degree then no you have to first get the Master’s degree and then apply for PhD.
Hello sir, I have a question, how does it effect PhD application if someone has unsatisfactory grade in research credits on transcript
The overall GPA is important not just some grades
@@SamanMovahed Thanks for replying sir, Does it effect your chances of getting scholarship?
@@muskanbhadok2370 the GPA is an important part of the score you get in order to get the scholarship. Other important factors are research proposals and interview.
@@SamanMovahed Thank you so much sir
Can you share your research proposal?
I cannot share my research proposal of course. But you can find many templates on the web
Bro i have one question ...how we can find all call.????
Hi, there is not one place to find all calls together. The best thing you can do is go to the website of the universities you want to apply for and search for the call. For example, in January universities start to open in Italy for the new cycle. Start making an excel, go to each universities website, and download the file of the call
@@SamanMovahed ok...bro thanks......
@@akramshaikh1342 You're welcome glad to help :)
i want to go Italy for PHD Programme
It can be a good choice it’s better to consider all of your options in other countries as well then decide.
thanks Saman, very precious informations you shared with us... is there any way to contact you? i would like to ask you something about PhD in Italy
Thank you for your kind words. You can ask me anything in here in the comments.
@@SamanMovahed thanks, i'm worried about age, Is there an age restriction for applying to PhD in Italy? I mean, can people aged 35 and over 35 also receive scholarships?
Hi Sam, May I have your e-mail ID?
Hi Arijit, sorry I cannot post my email here, but feel free to ask anything you want in the comment section and I will answer them.
@@SamanMovahed Ok, How about doing PhD from University of Calabria?
@@arijitdutta91it's the same as doing a PhD for any other Italian university you go to their website and search if they have your major for a PhD then you read the call that has been published on the website you then read the requirements and upload the needed documents. But I think you can consider better universities that are located not in rural areas such as Bologna or Milano.
