Annual Application Process

The PPGHIS admission process takes place once a year, for both master’s and doctoral degrees. The Call for Applications can vary significantly from one year to the next, and therefore it is very important to carefully read the details of the Call for Applications in effect that year. It is an extremely elaborate process, which involves the entire faculty of the Program. Calls for Applications are usually published in August of each year, and the admission process takes place between the beginning of October, and it concludes in December. Between 2020 and 2022, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, these dates were changed. Since 2018, registration for the PPGHIS selection process has taken place exclusively online, for a maximum of 30 vacancies. For the 2024 selection process, we had 267 applications, 199 from candidates for the Master’s course and 68 for the PhD course. For all appeals, the Selection Coordination is the last decision-making body, and no external appeals are possible. International applicants may follow a different path to enter the Program, as shown on the website.
