A PhD program focuses entirely on research. Each doctoral project involves creating your own unique research initiative, carried out under the mentorship of at least two faculty supervisors specializing in your field.

You can undertake PhD research in any discipline offered by the University, provided there's adequate supervisory expertise. Interdisciplinary projects are encouraged. The University offers a structured research environment with close supervision and regular progress assessments. Distance learning options for PhD studies are also available at London Met.

Earning a PhD involves contributing new knowledge to your field. This demands comprehensive understanding of existing literature, strong analytical abilities to evaluate research findings, self-discipline, and significant time commitment.

While the program primarily consists of independent research, you'll receive methodological training and may enroll in relevant master's-level courses. Additionally, you can pursue a Postgraduate Certificate in Learning and Teaching in Higher Education alongside your research.

Our vibrant research community offers numerous opportunities for growth. The University is currently expanding its research initiatives, and as a Graduate School member, you'll participate in professional development events, conferences, lecture series, and present your work at our annual Student-Staff Research Conference.
