Choose to carry out your postgraduate studies at Hull and become part of a vibrant, forward-thinking research community. Our postgraduate students are well integrated and fundamental to the work that we do, and we pride ourselves on supporting them to make sure that they achieve their full potential. We have developed an international reputation for our research in evolutionary biology, earth science and functional ecology. Our state-of-the-art research facilities include environmentally controlled tropical and cold water aquarium systems, and a microscopy suite.
We offer MSc by Thesis and PhD opportunities and we have a network of exceptional research opportunities. An MSc by Thesis is a postgraduate degree option with more research freedom than the more conventional taught pathways. On this programme, you spend a year on a research project closely advised by your research supervisor. At the end of your project you submit a research thesis, which will be evaluated by a research panel. A PhD, meanwhile is the ultimate form of student-centred learning, allowing you to focus your research interests and make an original and meaningful contribution to science.
Our academic experts welcome postgraduate research applications across a broad range of topics.
Our work includes physiological, behavioural and evolutionary studies as well as organism-level research. Focuses include:
Our research examines the varied processes which shape individual, population and species diversity. Focuses include:
We also offer postgraduate supervision in many more areas including estuarine and coastal studies, fisheries, and environment technology and design. We also offer the opportunity for inter-disciplinary research in geography and biology at PhD level.
