We’re proud of our excellent research and high-quality supervision in a broad range of subjects and a variety of traditions. During your PhD, you’ll work in a friendly, open-minded and inclusive environment. You’ll:

  • be part of a lively department with a diverse postgraduate community
  • work with academics who are breaking new ground in their respective fields of research
  • attend our weekly Philosophy Colloquium, workshops, student-led conferences and discussion groups.

Your research project will culminate in a (roughly) 80,000-word thesis. You can choose to work with more than one supervisor and – if your project demands it – one of your supervisors can be from another department.

You have the opportunity to audit postgraduate taught modules in Philosophy and other disciplines. You may also be able to gain teaching experience from your second year of study.
