The interdisciplinary Communication Sciences PhD program accepts applications from candidates whose master's degree is outside of Communication Sciences. The announcement, application, evaluation and processes are carried out in the same way as for graduates of the field. 1 or 2 semesters of scientific preparation courses are given to candidates who are accepted from outside the field. Students who are successful in the scientific preparation courses start taking their master's degree courses.
