Postgraduate research
As a prospective PhD, MSc(Res) or MSt(Res) student, you will apply to work with an individual supervisor or supervisory team within a School or institute, and not a specific programme of study. It is therefore important that you look at staff research interests within the University and ensure that your project matches an existing area of research.
Please contact a supervisor in your research area to inquire about PhD opportunities.
“The interdisciplinary nature of the Graduate School is unique. Our lecturers come from all kinds of backgrounds including anthropology, international relations, economics, and management.”
