We are renowned for pioneering research across diverse fields, particularly in policy-focused analyses of worldwide socioeconomic and cultural shifts, as well as fragile ecological systems. You'll collaborate with distinguished faculty members who actively shape policy discussions in the UK Government, European Union, and various global institutions.
Our program offers both PhD and MPhil study options, which vary in length and research scope.

A PhD requires your research to significantly advance knowledge in your selected discipline through original contributions.
An MPhil involves independent research with a narrower focus than a PhD, culminating in a Master of Philosophy degree. There may be opportunities to transition from an MPhil to a PhD during your studies.
