Course outline
Our PhD Law programme requires an original contribution to the body of knowledge in a particular academic or professional discipline. It will take approximately three academic years to complete with full-time study and six years of part-time study.
Students are registered initially for the degree of PhD (Doctor of Philosophy), although their status is probationary until the first Annual Review has taken place, normally between 12 and 18 months from first registration.
In addition to PhD Law, we offer a variety of other PhD programmes.
