Doctor of Philosophy L10
The Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) is the University’s highest qualification. The degree is undertaken by research only and leads to advanced academic and theoretical knowledge in a specialist area.
The PhD is suitable for students who want to pursue an academic or research career, or a senior position in the public or private sector. Doctoral studies present you with the opportunity to generate new ideas that can benefit business and society. You will make a significant original contribution to knowledge and understanding in your field of study and meet recognized international standards for your work.
Modules
Doctoral students will attain the knowledge, values and attributes to make significant contributions to their professional communities and societies through further high-quality research, and developments.
Stage 1
You put together a proposal that critically reviews work done in your area of research. This requires a suitable research methodology and a timeframe for completion of the degree.
You are expected to publish one or more courses for a reputed international conference in your chosen area of research.
Stage 2
Once you have completed your research proposal, you refine your design, collect data and conduct your research as appropriate.
Data is collected and analysed and the results are published at international conferences. A journal publication is also encouraged at this point.
Stage 3
The first step in the final stage of the PhD is finalising the data collection and analysis. You then write your PhD thesis and submit it to the supervisor for feedback. It could take two or three drafts before the thesis is ready for submission and examination.
