Application with foreign educational certificates

Application with foreign educational certificates

Would you like to do a doctorate at the PZAI and have your degree from abroad? Then it must first be checked whether your degree fulfils the requirements for a doctorate in Germany. 

This check is subject to a fee, is carried out by uni-assist and involves the following steps:

  1. You prepare the necessary documents:
    • Application for acceptance
    • Degree certificate entitling you to a doctorate in English language (e.g. Master's degree; degree certificate and transcript/gradesheet)
    • Bachelor's degree in English language (degree certificate and transcript/gradesheet)
    • Copy of your passport
  2. Registration and application in the uni-assist portal  (https://my.uni-assist.de)
    • Please enter ‘Hochschule RheinMain’ as the search criterion and remove the filter for ‘Semester’
    • Enter "Promotion" under Type of degree
    • Payment of the fees
    • Upload the documents
  3. Sending the examination results
    • The result of the examination is forwarded directly to the PZAI office, so you do not need to take any action here.
