The Master of Philosophy (MPhil) is a postgraduate research degree considered an academic qualification that sits between a Master's and a PhD. It entails the development of an academic thesis, which the student is expected to manage independently under the supervision of a tutor.

There are no written exams or mandatory classroom attendance. The final thesis must be at least 90 pages long. It is a program designed to accommodate family and professional commitments without disruption.

Admission requirements typically vary depending on the country and university. Each nation has its own academic framework, and every institution sets its own standards. Selinus University, as a global distance learning institution, operates independently from governmental regulations and has developed its own autonomous system. This model allows students—often already engaged in professional careers—to work with full autonomy and flexibility. The minimum requirements for Enrollment are a Bachelor's degree and a minimum age of 30.

We welcome applications from mature students who possess relevant experience and competencies that enable them to successfully complete the program and produce a high-quality thesis. Since there is no on-campus attendance required, professional experience is regarded as an essential admission criterion. This type of degree is particularly beneficial for managers, consultants, professionals, and entrepreneurs seeking formal recognition of their expertise.

Thus, the Master of Philosophy (MPhil) at Selinus University can be considered a high-level professional academic qualification that also provides access to the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) program. Candidates must demonstrate specific knowledge as well as educational and professional experience, which should be clearly reflected in their final thesis.

The awarding of the MPhil degree from Selinus University depends on the evaluation of the final thesis: including the content, originality of the topic, and structure of the writing. The candidate's competencies and independence will also be taken into account when assigning the final grade and academic assessment. The transcript will include both the grade awarded for the thesis and the final evaluation of the Master’s degree.
