Students undertake supervised but independent research, at the end of which they submit a thesis embodying the results of that research. This thesis must demonstrate familiarity with, and an understanding of the subject, its principal sources and authorities. It should display critical discrimination and a sense of proportion in evaluating evidence and the judgements of others. A PhD thesis must embody an original contribution to the knowledge of the discipline either by the discovery of new knowledge or by the exercise of a new and independent critical approach.We will consider applications in all areas of International Studies (Political Theory; Political Science; International Relations), but particularly welcome applicants interested in areas that reflect the research interests of academic staff:The European UnionCubaSociobiology; Genetics and SocietyFreedom of SpeechIranUnited NationsAvailable start datesApr 2024Sep 2024Jan 2025Apr 2025Duration3 Years6 Years
