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).
| Lectures | Guided research courses (required) | Doctoral Thesis | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 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
