Overview
All the research programmes enable students to feel part of the vibrant University community, with access to a range of exciting events, research seminars and MA modules which students can take for no credit with the agreement of the convenor. Most PhD students are given the opportunity to teach from their second year.
Research students meet regularly with their supervisor, and have the opportunity to take part in informal reading groups and research seminars to which students, staff and visiting speakers contribute papers. Students also benefit from a series of research skills seminars that run in the spring term, which gives them a chance to share the research expertise of staff and postdoctoral members of the department.
As a basis for advanced research, students must take the School and Faculty research methods programmes.
