Course Summary

UCL Institute of Education (IOE) offers world-leading doctoral courses in education and related social science. Our Education MPhil/PhD distance learning students undertake a research project, working closely with their supervisors to develop each stage of their research. Supervision takes place online (e.g. using Teams/Zoom and email). Students also engage in a tailored course of online research training courses and activities available from the IOE Research Training Programme, UCL Doctoral Skills Development Programme, the multi-institutional Bloomsbury Postgraduate Skills Network, and other sources.

The MPhil/PhD is for applicants with a strong interest in an aspect of educational and social research, which may be understood broadly across the life course, in relation to other subject areas and wider social, economic, political and cultural changes. You may have a background in education or a cognate area of study. It is suitable for both recent graduates and those progressed in a career.
