Course summary
The MPhil/PhD in Gender is a dynamic programme that will develop your scholarly and career interests, preparing you for the world of academia and policy research. You’ll have the opportunity to undertake a substantial piece of work that is worthy of publication, and which makes an original contribution to the field of Gender Studies. Learning takes the form of courses, workshops, and professional training over your first three years. You’ll begin on the MPhil, and once you’ve met certain requirements, you’ll be upgraded to PhD status. In your first year, you’ll receive core gender theory, epistemology and methodology training to prepare you for research and writing. You’ll also receive ongoing training throughout your studies in and outside of the department. Fortnightly PhD workshops are also held throughout the programme from Years 1 to 3. You’ll be matched with your main supervisor who will guide you through the various stages of your research, acting as your point of contact during your time in the department. The PhD programme aims to attract the very best future researchers, and we’re attentive to questions of power and inequality and their impact on faculty, staff and students. The department has a commitment to social justice and to ensuring an inclusive space for all.
