Course summary

The Florence Nightingale Faculty of Nursing, Midwifery & Palliative Care at King’s College London is recognised as one of the world’s leading centres for nursing research and education. Our MPhil and PhD programmes are designed for qualified nurses from any country who wish to advance their careers as researchers and leaders in nursing practice and policy. Supervision is provided by expert academics across a wide range of nursing and clinical research areas, with new projects available throughout the year. Our research focuses on improving patient outcomes, nursing care delivery, and healthcare policy, achieving 1st place in the UK for research quality, outputs and impact in the most recent Research Excellence Framework (REF). The Joint PhD is an innovative integrated programme that offers unique opportunities for the very best PhD supervision in an international context. The programme offered provides candidates with the opportunity to divide their PhD study between three prestigious universities (King’s, the University of Hong Kong and the National University of Singapore), enjoying full supervision at both. While supervisions and regular graduate seminars enable students to construct a theoretical, historical and systematic framework for their research, the Joint PhD also organizes international colloquia and workshops at which students can present and discuss their work with peers and academic staff across the institutions involved. The programme builds on an extensive network of existing institutional links, joint teaching experience and collaborative graduate programmes between King’s and our partner universities.
