After receiving the degree of License the students end their relationship with the institute. Any student who wishes to continue to the level of Doctorate must apply anew to the institute for admission to the doctoral program. To do this the student must:

1. After deciding on the topic for the doctorate and choosing a moderator from among the professors at the institute, make a request for admission to the doctoral program and arrange a meeting with the president.

2. In making his decision the president takes into consideration the topic chosen, the dossier presented, the performance of the candidate in the license program and the license thesis. The president will also take into consideration the language proficiency of the candidate.

3. On the basis of this documentation and after a dialogue with the student the president can give his consent for registration to be made in the Segreteria.
