PhD

The College of Humanities and Social Sciences (CHUSS), Makerere University has received financial support from The Andrew W Mellon Foundation to strengthen doctoral training in the Humanities and Social Sciences at Makerere University. It is expected that this intervention will establish a critical mass of home grown and supervised PhDs using a cohort based doctoral training model.

We are proud to announce that six MISR MPhil/PhD students were awarded various fellowships from the SSRC Next Generation of Social Sciences in Africa Program and the Open Society Foundations.

The third semester of the MISR PhD programme commenced on January 7th, 2013 and will end on April 26th 2013.

The 2013 academic year has two semesters:

Semester 1: January 7th - April 26th.

• Teaching: January 7 - April 19
• Exams: April 22 - April 26

Semester 2: May 13 - August 30.
