To apply, in addition to the TSM procedure, candidates dependent on Campus France must follow the "Études en France" procedure.

Budget

Doctoral Programme

No. You should apply first for admission to the Doctoral Programme. Each application will be carefully studied by the professors in the field of specialization. Final decisions are made by the Doctoral Programme Board, so though you could identify potential supervisors doing research in your field of interest, it is not necessary to contact them to agree on supervision prior to application. Identifying the best supervisor is an essential and important milestone for your future PhD thesis: you will do it, with the Doctoral Programme support, during the first 6 months of the MSc degree.

A Bachelor’s degree (in the US), the completion of the first year of a Master (in Europe) or an equivalent diploma, representing a four-year course of study (equivalent 240 ECTS) in an accredited college or university, is required for admission to the doctoral programme (Year 1, Master of Science). A completed Master’s degree is not required, although many applicants have a Master’s degree in such fields as management, finance, economics, engineering, psychology, statistics or other related fields. Superior academic performance is expected.

Generally, all interested applicants apply to follow the overall course of the programme (i.e. first year of MSc coursework followed by the internal application to enter into the MPhil course of study and research). Candidates interested in obtaining a PhD through professional experience are encouraged to research the VAE process and then contact doctoralprogramme@tsm-education.fr

A cotutelle, or double degree for the PhD with a foreign university, must be initiated by a TSM Doctoral Programme faculty member (we do not accept requests coming directly from foreign doctoral students). The future supervisors must have pre-existing research ties, such as being co-authors on a paper or collaborating on a research project. Please discuss this project with your supervisor.
