Research Degrees
The usual route to obtaining the degree of MPhil or PhD in this Department is to register for one of our taught Masters courses. You will follow a special 'Research Track' version of the course, which prepares you for continuing on to further research work.
The Research Track course consists of:
- Taught modules totalling 90 credits (including between 15 and 45 credits of Research Training modules)
- A 90 credit dissertation (20,000 - 25,000 words)
