International Political Economy (MPhil/PhD)

The Department of European & International Studies at King’s is host to a cluster of internationally recognized specialists in International Political Economy. Their research interests include European political economy; the political economy of finance and crisis, East Asia, energy and migration. Applications are invited for the PhD in International Political Economy to work with and under the supervision of these scholars.

Every research student is assigned a primary and secondary supervisor. Their progress is monitored through regular meetings of a review panel. European & International Studies mounts regular research seminars and occasional conferences with invited outside speakers. In addition, the European & International Studies Research Students' Workshop allows research students to report on their work in progress and receive feedback from staff members and fellow students.

The Faculty of Arts & Humanities runs a compulsory research training course for all new MPhil/PhD students. Additional research training, where necessary, is agreed between the students and supervisors.
