Undertaking an MPhil or PhD
Nottingham Trent University offers opportunities to study for an MPhil or PhD by research in all its academic schools. Supervision is available by full-time or part-time study, and can sometimes be provided by distance learning.
The University Graduate School runs a competitive annual competition for bursaries to undertake research degrees.
A strong feature of its research degrees is the development of skills, networks and know-how necessary to build successful careers, whether you intend to stay within academia or pursue a career in another walk of life. We offer effective training and support from friendly and approachable staff, reinforced by strong collaborative links with business, public services and external academic networks.
Carrying out research for a PhD or MPhil is very different from being an undergraduate. You will work on a unique project in a field of your own choice. We will provide you with the support you need, through expert supervision from an experienced researcher, a well-chosen programme of supporting studies and research training and the support of the University's Graduate School.
You will need to carefully assess the research opportunities available in your chosen area, and we suggest that you seek the advice of the Graduate School in the relevant part of the university. They will be able to put you in touch with a potential supervisor, and will also provide advice about the most appropriate course of supporting studies for you. Please contact the relevant School at the addresses shown above.
