Applying for a Research Degree

You can expect to be completing your UK PhD within three years, which includes submitting your thesis. A PhD can be a positive life-changing experience but to obtain good results you need to choose your place of study carefully. Some universities will define themselves as world class, research-led institutions and will be looking to attract high quality research students from around the world.

If you wish to be considered for a PhD place in one of the top ranking institutions you will need to spend time identifying the best place for your research, getting your application prepared and writing a definitive Research Proposal. All these factors are particularly crucial if you are also looking for the institution to fund your studies.
