Course summary

Studying for a PhD in Education will allow you to become an expert in a specialist area and gain high-quality research training, which will equip you to undertake further educational research projects. As a PhD candidate, you will carry out original research work under the guidance of one or more supervisors. An initial priority for a doctorate degree is refining your research plan and establishing a feasible timescale for the project. During the early part of the PhD programme, you will embark on various research methods modules to support your research activities. We award the Doctor of Philosophy degree on the basis of a PhD thesis in which you present the rationale, methods and findings from your original study.Inclusion, Childhood and Youth Research Centre brings together scholars conducting world-leading and high impact research on learning and human development, children's rights, inclusive and equitable quality education and sustainable development in rapidly evolving digital societies.
