Admission Requirements
You will be required to have:
- a good honours degree from a UK university or equivalent (first or upper-second class), although applicants will usually tend to have obtained a master's degree before entry
As a part of the application process, you are required to submit a research proposal outlining how you intend to investigate your topic of interest. In the proposal, you will need to clearly state your research questions, aims and objectives, as well as your review of the literature on the topic and the corresponding research design. The document needs to specify what your original contribution to the knowledge will be. You can find more information about the structure and content of the research proposal. Please note that your application cannot be processed without the proposal and you will be able to upload it, once you click 'Apply now' and start the application process.
The University only offers supervision to candidates if there is adequate available supervisory expertise in the area of the research project.
