=> to apply for the IPhU Graduate School at the M1 level and ask for a scholarship: fill the online GS/M1 application form here.

After this initial (pre-)selection of candidates to join the Graduate School, since the Physics of the Universe Master program of the Graduate School is rooted into the Master of Physics at the Aix-Marseille University (AMU), enrollments must be confirmed by an additional and mandatory step required by AMU:

Candidates have to complete their application either through the Campus France procedure or the national "Mon Master" online application: successful candidates for the Graduate School will be asked to complete the official admission procedure for the M1-year of the Master of Physics at the Faculty of Sciences, see also for the official application to the Master

Please, note that this is the last selection step and do pay attention to the Campus France, especially those regarding the application for the 1st Master year, deadline is January the 1st, 2023.

Applications received two weeks prior the respective deadlines, will no longer be considered by the IPhU committee; they must be directly completed through the Campus France or "Mon Master" process according to the Admission procedure. Through this channel, only the enrollment in the IPhU Graduate School might be reconsidered (not the application for a studentship).

Deadline to submit applications for the IPhU Graduate School is set at: May 15, 2023

IPhU response would be given approximately end of May: short list & waiting list + Conditional IPhU approval for a Master fellowship.
