How do I apply?

You should contact your home university; they will reach out to us and “nominate” you. Once your university has submitted the nominations, we will email you the application instructions.

Your application and your future study contract will be reviewed (REQUIREMENT: 60% of the courses you select must be taken at PhITEM).
