Work visa after PHD

Post by seagul » Wed May 31, 2017 6:32 pm

Hi
It has been heard that after completion of PHD degree then the student can apply for some work visa like psw/IGS/fresh talent scheme few years ago after completing bachelor degree. If it is correct then whether a foreign student who completed PhD degree at abroad at government approved institute may benefit from such scheme?
The opinion expressed as above is neither a professional advice nor contesting/competing to other member's opinion/advice.

Yes, it is the Tier 4 Doctorate Extension Scheme, for 12 months. Your university will have information about it on their website.

No.
I do not give immigration advice. I refer you to Immigration Rules, guidance, other online content and to your sponsor.
