The maximum duration allowed for completion of the program (while maintaining all the given student privileges) is 6 terms, and the final GPA should at least be 3.00. At least one of the taken courses should be a mathematics course.

The PhD program requires at least 21 credits hours from at least seven courses for students with an MSc degree. Students with a BSc degree should complete at least 42 credits hours from at least 14 courses. A qualification exam, a thesis proposal and thesis work are also required for the completion of the PhD study.
