Postgraduate research training opportunities

Professional Doctorate (DProf)

A DProf is suitable if you wish your doctoral research to be structured around a particular area of professional practice. Our University offers a number of Professional Doctorates, each requiring the candidate to investigate or critically study an approved topic and which, making a significant contribution to practice and or knowledge, will be the basis for a thesis which must be defended in an oral examination. These programmes are available over a four year period and are ideal for people already committed to a professional area and looking for recognition and further development at the highest level of professional and academic achievement.

These are likely to be academic or professional journal papers and which contribute to knowledge in your area of expertise and include a synoptic review. This review and the existing published work together form the thesis which you will defend by oral examination.
