Course Summary

The PhD is our principal research degree. If you study full time, it is a three-year programme, during which you will come to work at the highest level in the subject, with the aim of producing an extended thesis (of not more than 100,000 words) which will make a significant and lasting contribution to the field. PhD students are provided with a 'supervisory team', normally consisting of two members of staff who have expertise in the field of study. In practice, most students at this level work closely with one 'principal supervisor'. As part of the process of application, you should identify and contact the person you think might be suitable as your principal supervisor. (Consult our list of staff, their specialisms, and publications. Contact the Director of Postgraduate Research if you would like help with this process.) Your prospective supervisor will be able to help you develop a viable research proposal.
