Eligibility for extended Post-Study Work Rights depends on several criteria including the course being in 'Registered' status, being a Skills Level 1 qualification (which a PhD is), having a duration of 92 weeks or greater (this course is 208 weeks), and the narrow Field of Education aligning with the Skills Level 1 priority list. The course's field (Society and Culture) would need to be assessed against the current priority list. Eligibility is reviewed yearly and requires at least one active enrolment at the time of review.
