You can pursue either a PhD or MPhil in Law. A Law PhD typically involves three years of full-time study, whereas an MPhil requires one year of full-time commitment. The Strathclyde Law School accommodates part-time PhD and MPhil candidates as well. Part-time research programs offer professionals the chance to explore topics relevant to their field while continuing their careers. This flexible approach allows working individuals to complete postgraduate research and earn a PhD or MPhil degree. Our research focuses on civil justice and dispute resolution, covering areas such as mediation, negotiation, public service redress mechanisms, and international conflict resolution. Additionally, we specialize in examining mediation's role within formal legal systems, lawyer practices, and its application in construction and commercial disputes.
For postgraduate studies, we require a minimum overall IELTS score of 6.5 or equivalent (the test must be taken within two years of programme start date)
