Program details

Overview

This doctorate offers a pathway into advanced study for holders of a Master's degree in Education by coursework, built around four research-methods courses in its first year followed by two years of fieldwork and thesis writing. Before beginning their research, candidates must successfully defend their research proposal, after which the remaining years focus almost entirely on completing and writing up an original piece of doctoral research. The taught component is delivered online in year one, and the whole degree carries 360 credit points. Full-time candidates can complete the doctorate in three years, while part-time candidates are given up to six years to finish the same thesis-based programme.

Requirements
