Application steps

We present an easy and convenient way to apply to the Kairos PhD and related learning experiences offered by IBR. The following steps are designed to facilitate the application process:

Step 1: Consultation

As the contextualisation partner of Kairos University, IBR provides personal guidance to professionals exploring doctoral research opportunities.

We will explain the Kairos University application process, answer your questions about the programme structure, and assist you in preparing your application.

Schedule a personal consultation or request a call at a time that suits you best — our team will be happy to assist you.

Step 2: Personal interview

A personal interview will be arranged for each applicant.
Interviews are conducted either in person in your home country or via web conferencing with an affiliate professor of Kairos University (USA), at a time convenient to you.

The interview will be conducted in English and aims to explore the fit between your personal development objectives and the programme’s admission requirements. IBR assists in organising and preparing applicants for this step to ensure a smooth and transparent process.

Affiliate professors are teaching and supervisory faculty formally associated with Kairos University (USA). All current affiliate professors are listed on the official Kairos University website.

Step 3: Admissions decision

A final admission decision will be made by Kairos University (USA) and communicated to you soon after your application has been completed and reviewed.

IBR will keep you informed throughout the process and assist you in submitting any additional documents required by the university.

Step 4: Equipping you to study

Expect a warm welcome from our Global Service Centre.
Relax and let our team guide you as you prepare for your Kairos PhD journey, supported by IBR – the contextualisation partner of Kairos University (USA).
