Program details

Overview

This PhD is a research degree in Gaelic and Celtic Studies, built around an original project that the candidate develops with academic supervisors. It is a high-level qualification rooted in original research, taught through the medium of Gaelic, and it develops advanced skills in academic writing, analysis and communication. Supervision is available across several areas, including historical phonology and musicology. Candidates work closely with their supervisors to shape a research project that matches their scholarly interests and their wider professional goals. Over several years, the project develops into a substantial original thesis, and students are supported throughout by their supervisors and the wider academic community at the college. The degree can be studied full-time over three and a half years or part-time over seven years, on campus or by distance learning.
