Supervision can be offered in any of the areas of research actively pursued in the subject area of Economy and Society. We have a particular concentration of economics expertise in four areas:

- History and methodology of economic thought
- Structural economic analysis
- Sustainable futures
Students are often attracted by the research interests of our staff and may decide to undertake a project that relates to their ongoing research. To explore these or other research ideas, you can start by emailing the member of staff whose research interests you and arrange to discuss research ideas.
We are also open to students who have already formulated specific research ideas before they apply and we can support them in finding a supervisor who is able to help them develop these into a doctoral research programme if suitable.
