The UCL Global Business School for Health (UCL GBSH) postgraduate research course is varied and interdisciplinary. It aims to develop cutting-edge, applied research for health and social care which can include international and/or fieldwork components, building on the expertise and network of world-class academics.Healthcare needs to be sustainable and affordable for all, but it is also under strain across the globe. To address this challenge, the UCL Global Business School for Health, the world's first business school for health, offers an innovative interdisciplinary environment, covering relevant topics including management, health economics, policy, health systems, and AI, to train exceptional students to tackle the most pressing issues healthcare is facing. As a postgraduate research student, you enrol for a three-year PhD with the presentation of a thesis at the end of Year 3. Students are initially registered for an MPhil, upgrading to a PhD subject to satisfactory academic progress. During the course, you will meet regularly with your supervisory team and needs for further training and support will be closely monitored, identified, and provided. All postgraduate research students are expected to undertake 10 pro-rata days of skills training of their choosing each year with the UCL Doctoral School. This will include courses on research design and statistics, presentation skills and career planning.
