Course summary

We welcome applications for postgraduate research into many areas of law at PhD level. In each programme, students write a detailed research thesis on a topic they have chosen under the supervision of a member of staff specialising in that area of law. A thesis is presented of 100,000 words for a PhD. Candidates are also required to attend a viva voce (oral) examination. Our postgraduate students are a fully integrated part of Law and our research students make an important contribution to our vibrant research culture. You are given expert supervision from at least two academic members of staff, research training and financial assistance to fund research trips and attend conferences. We also stage dedicated workshops, seminars and conferences for our PhD students. All of this takes place within a prestigious Law department. As the 14th oldest university in England, we've been teaching and practising Law for almost 100 years with our alumni including The Right Honourable Lady Justice Dame Eleanor King, who has a mock courtroom named in her honour on campus.
