You have the option to pursue either a PhD or MPhil degree. These programs vary in length and research scope.
A PhD requires your research to significantly advance knowledge in your selected field with original contributions.
An MPhil involves independent research, though not as comprehensive as a PhD. Upon completion, you'll earn a Master of Philosophy degree. There may be opportunities to transition from an MPhil to a PhD during your studies.
