Research Degrees
Beginning a research degree is perhaps the most exciting and demanding phase in any academic career. It marks the transition from being largely taught by others to becoming an independent academic, conducting your own research and developing your own ideas. Our goal is to guide you through that process of becoming a fully-fledged academic or researcher.
Research Proposal
Your application should include an extensive outline of your proposed topic of research. This should include a statement about why you have chosen the topic, aims, objectives and what methodology you propose to adopt plus references to text used. No application can be considered without this outline.
At the School of Business and Economics you have the opportunity to study towards a PhD or MPhil in Business and Management, Economics, or Information Science. As a Doctoral student, you will join whichever one of our discipline groups that suits your research interests best.
