4-year PhD (full time and full time distance learning options only)
This is a four year PhD programme for students who:
have not previously studied research methods
have studied research methods but not in the UK
have limited English language skills
have not completed a master's degree.
In this programme, the first year is a foundation year designed to prepare you for the following three years of the PhD programme.
This will include completing taught research methods units from our MRes in Health & Social Care , developing a research proposal with your supervision team and English language tuition (if English is not your first language).
We also offer a standard three year PhD programme (as well as MPhil ) for students who do not need to do the foundation year.
