4-year PhD (full time and full time distance learning 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 MClin Res in Clinical Research , 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.
