Course summary

MPhil/PhD students in Law are welcomed into a cross-disciplinary and collaborative academic environment in which they can conduct independent research on an area of law and legal studies to produce an extended thesis under the guidance of their supervising team. As a research student, you will have access to structured training, research forums, and networks, enabling you to develop research skills which may benefit not only your specific research, but also be useful for future employment. As part of this development, you will also be encouraged to present your research at conferences and symposia and may have the opportunity to deliver undergraduate teaching at the University. Students registered for the MPhil/PhD Law programme are formally enrolled for the MPhil degree in their first year, and then transfer to a PhD degree at the start of their second year. The MPhil/PhD Law programme can be completed within 27 months on a full-time, and 41 months on a part-time basis. Some students may also want to enrol only or specifically in our MPhil in Law degree programme, which can be completed within 18 months on a full-time and within 27 months on a part-time basis. As a research student, you will be assigned a Director of Studies and a second supervisor, who are there to provide advice and guidance on your independent study. You will be expected to meet with your supervisors on a monthly basis, and if part-time, then bi-monthly. Due to the nature of postgraduate research programmes, the majority of time is spent undertaking independent study and research. You will also be expected to become actively involved in the research activities of Lincoln Law School, to network, and to also broaden your knowledge and skills beyond the topic and work of your specific research project.
