Conditions for completion, and course completion methods
(1) Enrollment and participation in the doctoral course for five years or more. However, as Article 7 of the Doshisha University postgraduate regulations stipulates, students who display academic excellence may be qualified for earlier completion, but no earlier than three years.
(2) Acquisition of a total of 40 or more course credits from the curriculum, including required subjects (17 credits or more), "Basic Experiment in Brain Science Research Ⅰ-Ⅳ" (8 credits), and "Advanced Experiment in Brain Science Research I - V" (10 credits).

---|---|---|---|---|
Required lectures | Elective lectures | Basic Experiment in Brain Science Research (Ⅰ-Ⅳ) | Advanced Experiment in Brain Science Research( I - V) | |
17 | [5 more] | 8 | 10 | |
40 more |
However, completion in less than five years of "Advanced Experiment in Brain Science Research II - V" as per provision (1) will still require comprehensive assessment, including of the doctoral thesis.
(3) Submission of a doctoral thesis and successful defense
(4) Fluency in at least one foreign language required for research
