The Institute of Development Studies (IDS) transforms the knowledge, action and leadership needed for more equitable and sustainable development globally, through our world-class research, learning and teaching.
Our PhD by Published Works is designed for researchers with an existing portfolio of published work who haven’t had the chance yet to get a doctorate.
The portfolio of research you submit for this PhD will be of the same quality, rigour, and volume as a typical PhD. The work might take the form of refereed articles, chapters, monographs, and scholarly editions, if they are available or traceable in the public domain (and not self-published). A substantial proportion of these works will be peer-reviewed, and a number will be solely authored by you. All works should ideally have been published not more than ten years before the date of submission. You’ll work with two qualified supervisors to compose an accompanying 10,000-word dissertation, summarising and explaining your work’s contribution to the development field.
We’re proud of our PhD graduates who define and solve some of the world’s most pressing global challenges in their work as:
Areas of Study

Degree requirements: You’re normally expected to have a Merit (an average of 60% overall) in a master’s degree.

In exceptional circumstances, you may be considered for the degree if you have a qualification in a different subject area. You must also show evidence of substantial professional work experience and a body of published work in development-related work.
