The Department welcomes applications across diverse areas of Applied Linguistics (please note: supervision availability for TESOL or ELT topics is currently limited). Our key research expertise includes institutional discourse analysis (such as healthcare and scientific communication), the intersection of politics, language and culture, and digital communication.PhD Programme StructureThis is typically a 3-year full-time (or 6-year part-time) research-focused PhD with no compulsory coursework - students begin their research immediately. Full-time candidates must successfully complete an annual progress review each May.All PhD candidates should engage with departmental training and research events. Opportunities exist for students to present their developing research to the academic community.Supervisor SelectionProspective students may select a supervisor from our faculty members, whose expertise spans various Applied Linguistics specializations. Prior to application, it's crucial to consult with potential supervisors about your PhD proposal.Applications submitted without prior supervisor confirmation will be distributed among staff for consideration, but this often causes processing delays and rarely yields positive outcomes.
