Postgraduate Courses

How to apply for (research) postgraduate study

You will need to discuss your proposed field of research in some detail with the Department. The Department must ensure that the University can provide the necessary supervision, equipment and research materials.

Your initial application should take the form of a letter setting out your education to date, your existing and expected qualifications, and a fairly detailed research proposal (probably two or three pages). You should send this to the contact name given on the individual research pages for each Department.

If accepted, you may then be asked to fill in a form so that the University's approval and registration procedures can be completed.

The majority of research students start in September, but it is possible to start at any time during the year. Typical periods of registration for full-time research are fifteen months (minimum twelve) for an MPhil, and three years for a PhD.

You can apply online using our web-based application form for research.

This facility allows you to register by setting up a username and password so you can start your application form and come back later should you need to.
