Course summary

You will research a specific area of speech, language and communication science. Working with your supervisor in our specialist research centre work will involve one or more aspects of this discipline

Overview

Your degree will involve primary research. Enabling you to make a unique and original contribution to the body of evidence that underpins language and communication science.

Working closely with your supervisor you will benefit from academic expertise, spanning all aspects of speech, language and communication disorders. We also have knowledge and expertise in typical speech and language, social and clinical linguistics, deafness, dysphagia, and developmental disorders.

You will study in the Centre for Language and Communication Science Research. We have an on-site speech and language therapy clinic, and collaborations with academic and clinical partners in the UK and internationally.

Doctoral level study involves independent academic research, supported by supervisors, that makes an original contribution to knowledge within the discipline. The work carried out is therefore of sufficient quality to satisfy academic peer review and merit publication.

There are two main routes to doctoral-level research degrees (PhD) within the school:

MPhil/PhD by major thesis and PhD by publication.
