Course structure

Once you register for an PhD you will be provided with close supervision by leading academics in your field and research training and development through our Diploma in Educational Research.  At the end of the process you will submit a substantial and original research dissertation in your area of interest.

All PhD students are expected to follow the MSc/Diploma in Educational Research, exemptions are available from any of the research training units if you can provide evidence and/or documentation of your experience and qualifications to the Programme Director

Students take the research training programme to develop their understanding and skills in research. Find out about the MSc Educational Research programme.

Satisfactory academic progress on the PhD will be monitored regularly and reported on annually through the University's Annual Progress Monitoring exercise.
