The PhD in International Studies is a programme of doctoral study for students who would like to undertake advanced research in preparation for an academic or related career. The PhD programme can be taken full-time over 3 years (for primary research) plus up to one year for writing up of the thesis, or part-time over 6 years for primary research plus up to 2 years for writing up. If admitted to this degree, students will conduct their own research under the guidance of a team of academic supervisors, including members based at the University’s China campus and/or the UK campus. Progression is subject to passing successfully an annual review. Graduates will be awarded a University of Nottingham UK degree, which is also recognised by the Chinese Ministry of Education.
Taking a research degree allows you the freedom to study a topic of interest in-depth, with the help of two academic supervisors. The School's international environment and its world-class research provide an ideal home for postgraduate research.
