Postgraduate Research

The School of Social Sciences and Global Studies offers an intellectually stimulating environment for a lively postgraduate research community. Postgraduate research degrees are offered on a full- and part-time basis in all School disciplines.

Several of the School’s disciplines are also part of the prestigious Economic and Social Research Council funded Grand Union Doctoral Training Partnership (with the University of Oxford and Brunel University London) and the Arts and Humanities Research Council funded Open-Oxford-Cambridge Doctoral Training Partnership (with the University of Oxford and Cambridge University). The Doctoral Training Partnerships offer routes for fully funded full- and part-time postgraduate studentships and postdoctoral studies in the School of Social Sciences and Global Studies.
