The Natural Resource Institute (NRI) at Medway offers a perfect setting for groundbreaking research in development studies.

Studying development allows you to explore critical global issues like sustainable growth, economic progress, and alleviating poverty, particularly in developing nations.

Our NRI is expanding its MPhil and PhD research programs focusing on interdisciplinary development topics concerning both Southern regions and Europe. The Livelihoods and Institutions Department examines natural resources, environmental concerns, and development, while the Food and Markets Department tackles economic aspects of development.

We foster a dynamic research community in development studies, welcoming students worldwide from academic, governmental, and NGO backgrounds. We actively support our students
