Course summary

As an interdisciplinary research-only department within the University of Warwick, the work of the Institute for Employment Research (IER) provides wide-ranging opportunities for prospective doctoral candidates to engage in high quality social science doctoral-level research which is policy-relevant and academically rigorous. IER’s doctoral programme aims to train independent social science researchers who can develop and deploy theory effectively, assess the relative merits of different methodological approaches, choose and use appropriate empirical methods, manage their time and other research resources effectively. Being located in a specialist research environment will provide a wider understanding of the research process (including dissemination, funding, relationships with sponsors, and different organisational models for research). Our extensive research portfolio has meant that we have fostered and maintained links with national and international research centres UK government departments and agencies European Commission and other international bodies local authorities and sectoral organisations, as well as extensive academic networks.
