The proposal should describe the project’s scope, its scholarly significance and research methodology, including any source materials on which the project will rely or any empirical research that the applicant intends to undertake.

Ideally, the writing sample should be on a subject related to the applicant’s proposed research project.

Applicants should choose recommenders who are best situated to evaluate an applicant’s past academic work and potential to produce first-rate legal scholarship. The Ph.D. Admissions Committee strongly recommends that at least two recommenders hold academic appointments at a law school.

• Transcripts The applicant will need to upload records of academic performance to the online application prior to submission. No transcripts should be mailed. This upload may be in the form of a scanned copy of the applicant's transcript or academic record. If the transcript is in a language other than English, the applicant will also need to provide an English translation of the transcript. The translation must be certified to be an accurate translation of the original and be notarized or otherwise authenticated. The translation and the original transcript can then be uploaded to the application.
• Curriculum Vitae The applicant should submit a curriculum vitae listing all academic honors and awards, publications and presentations, and other professional accomplishments.
• Application Fee Each applicant must pay the application fee in the amount and manner required by the Graduate School.

Previous applicants who were not admitted to the Ph.D. in Law program and who wish to reapply must submit a completely new application and pay the application fee. Applicants who have been denied admission three times may not submit further applications.

Embark on an Extraordinary Journey: Join Our Prestigious Ph.D. Programme

Enrolling in a research degree program is a long-term commitment requiring students to delve deeper into a specific study area. Students collaborate with their supervisor and the doctoral committee shortly after enrollment to brainstorm potential problems. Through a thorough literature review, the team identifies gaps and formulates a hypothesis. This step is crucial and significant for the student.

Once the hypothesis is formulated, students, supervisors, and other academic companions identify appropriate methodologies to conduct in-depth experiments and gather evidence. This marks the beginning of your investigation. You'll face many challenges during this four to five-year journey. Not all experiments will yield the desired results, and sometimes you will need to change your experimental tools or revisit the proposed hypothesis.
