We provide two research degree options: an MPhil or PhD focused on subjects, organizations, or ideas connected to social work and social care services.
At the School of Social Policy, we deliver more than just academic qualifications. PhD candidates can participate in diverse events such as Departmental Research Seminars, Research Center Seminars, Postgraduate Research Student Seminars, and join an active community of PhD researchers.
Our PhD programs combine structured coursework in the initial year with dedicated supervision, designed to support you in developing a thesis that offers meaningful and novel contributions to the field.
You can pursue a research degree through full-time, part-time, or distance learning options.
We encourage applications across a broad spectrum of research areas. Collaborative supervision, both within our Department and with other departments, is available.
