PhDs and other research degrees
To apply for a PhD (or other postgraduate research qualification) you must have a Bachelors degree (Ptychio) from a recognised University (AEI), usually in a related subject area, with an approximate score of 7.0 or more (depending on the subject you wish to study) which is equivalent to a UK Upper Second Class Honours degree (also known as a 2:1).
