PhD Graduate School of Archaeology

Joint doctorate degree

Leiden University offers the possibility of pursuing a doctorate in the form of a ‘joint doctorate degree’: a doctorate completed simultaneously at two or more universities.

Joint doctorate degrees must be arranged prior to enrollment in the Graduate School and must be approved by the Graduate School and the university board. They are usually offered only in the case of long-standing agreements between institutions. The Graduate School of Archaeology requires that you contact us before pursuing a joint degree arrangement. We cannot guarantee that this arrangement will be possible in all cases.

See the Leiden University website on this topic for more information.
