Location of University of Bath
Most students are registered in the first instance for the degree of MPhil. Students are expected to carry out supervised research at the leading edge of their chosen subject, which must then be written up as a substantial thesis. The transfer from MPhil to PhD is subject to students passing an assessment process, including a formal presentation of work.
The final stage of the PhD degree is the oral or viva voce examination, in which students are required to defend the thesis to a Board of Examiners.
The programme aims to:
* provide a framework within which students can conduct an original
piece of research relating to their own experience and interest,
* develop fully-trained and competent educational researchers, able
to understand and use research techniques appropriate to their subject
area and to be conversant with approaches used by other social scientists,
* enable students to think through how they can use their existing
knowledge and skills to different contexts and apply them to a variety
of problems,
* equip students to pursue other research activities subsequently.
Qualifications and durations
* Full-time MPhil 1-3 years
* Full-time PhD 2-4 years
* Part-time MPhil 2-4 years
* Part-time PhD 3-6 years
