Committing myself to doctoral studies has, in a sense, brought me inner peace as well as a shift in mindset.

This spring, the University of Tartu opens 192 doctoral positions. Everyone who wants to gain new knowledge and pursue a career as a researcher, top specialist, or manager is welcome to apply.

Programme teaches students how to deal with information operations and thereby support the functioning of democratic societies.

Preliminary results of the International Student Barometer (ISB) show that international students are satisfied with their studies at the University of Tartu. They highlight strong academic quality, supportive learning conditions and the city of Tartu as an excellent living environment.

From the 2026/2027 academic year, many international master’s curricula at the University of Tartu will offer tuition waivers or reductions to students from the European Union. Students arriving from outside the European Union will have to pay tuition fees.

During the information session for the one-year, English-taught master’s programme Disinformation and Societal Resilience, an introductory video presenting the curriculum will be shown. This will be followed by a discussion in which participants can ask questions about the study experience.

Doctoral studies are a part of the career path, giving you the knowledge and future skills needed to become a top specialist or manager.

The University of Tartu invites international students interested in English-taught curricula to submit their applications in DreamApply.

The admission process will open on the Dreamapply platform on 2 January and on 1 February in the Estonian admission portal SAIS.

Learning Estonian can be a rewarding and challenging experience. We sat down for an episode of Tiksu to UniTartu podcast with two teachers and an international student to discuss learning Estonian.
