​About the Tygerberg Doctoral Office

The Tygerberg Doctoral Office (TyDo) supports senior postgraduate studies in the SU Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences. We administer the examination of full research (100%) masters theses; facilitate the Pre-Doctoral Short Course; support PhD studies - from the point of departmental selection to submission for examination; and provide a faculty contact point for consolidocs, postdoctoral fellows, and their hosts.

Students completing a Research (100%) Master’s Degree in the FMHS will be attended to by TyDo for examination purposes. Send Ms Nicoline Cockrell (nicolinecockrell@sun.ac.za) a single mail with all three PDF attachments: the approved thesis, Turnitin report, and signed release form.
