Programme description
Our PhD 4-year Nursing programme enables you to undertake a research project that will improve understanding of Nursing.
This postgraduate research programme in nursing gives you the opportunity to work with internationally renowned scholars engaged in innovative research that will make a difference in people's lives and in health and social care.
We particularly welcome students from all health and social care disciplines who have an interest in exploring related subject areas.
Coursework and assessment
Our PhD programmes follow the University's methods of assessment for PhD study and student progress is monitored via a detailed electronic system (e-prog) using a standard set of progress and monitoring forms.
Students must submit work at specific stages, review their progress, identify their learning and development needs, and meet with their supervisors throughout their course. Some meetings and evaluations are informal, while others are formal and documented.
Career opportunities
Your postgraduate research degree will open up a range of career opportunities after you graduate.
We require: An honours degree (minimum Upper Second (2:1)) or the overseas equivalent in a relevant subject AND a very good MSc/MPhil/MRes degree from a recognised institution OR satisfactory work at postgraduate level (which must include some research training) undertaken for the equivalent of at least one year full-time.
