Course programme
Successful applicants who enrol on the MSc are required to continue their application for the DPhil during the first term of MSc study, and to submit it for the January admissions deadline which follows. Success on the MSc will be an academic condition for entry into the DPhil element.

As part of the MSc course students will be advised to bear in mind their intentions for research study, and may, for example, attend a research placement and write their dissertation in a manner which informs their intended research topic for the DPhil.
Accordingly, it is only during the first term of the MSc year that applicants should begin to contact DPhil supervisors and consider projects to apply to undertake. During that time students will, with the assistance of their proposed research supervisor and the course team, write a proposal for their research to be added to their DPhil application by the January deadline.
Please note that part-time study is not available on the MSc element of the programme but may be available for the DPhil.
