Through academic study and research, the PhD/PhD by Published Works in Early Years programme aims to improve specific knowledge. The programme seeks to give students a firm foundation in research technique and equip them to conduct a sizable piece of academic research with success. The highest degree a UK institution may provide to a researcher who successfully defends their final thesis will also give them a great chance to advance into higher management and research jobs in education and related sectors. Both full-time and part-time study options are offered for the PhD/PhD by Published Works in Early Years. We invite applications from graduates with a Masters in any field who have experience working in formal, informal, or non-formal education. Find out more about the Centre for Education and Research.
