Course programme

How You Study

The flexible nature of the programme means that the students can either specify their own topics or can work on one of the projects suggested by our academic staff, examples of which are available on request.

Students are encouraged to look at the staff pages on the School website to discover what areas of research the tutors are currently involved in. The School’s research groups may also provide inspiration for projects.
Students will need to produce an outline proposal and will then be matched with an appropriate supervisory team.

Due to the nature of postgraduate research programmes, the vast majority of time is spent in independent study and research. There is approximately equivalent to one hour of contact time per week in the form of a weekly supervision meeting.
For more detailed information, please contact the Programme Leader.
