About

The PhD in Bioethics and Medical Jurisprudence at The University of Manchester is a structured research programme containing taught elements designed to provide a solid skills basis for independent research in this area.

Overview

National, regional, and local governments, organisations, and authorities are beginning to realise that they need highly trained people in healthcare ethics and law. This means now is a good time to aim for the highest academic qualifications in the field.  

Traditional graduate studies for a research degree do not offer the ethical and legal knowledge or the comprehensive training needed for cutting-edge research into bioethics and medical jurisprudence. A more structured approach is called for. 

Career opportunities

A PhD in Bioethics and Medical Jurisprudence from The University of Manchester can lead to careers in academic and clinical research, as well as enhance a career in medicine and other healthcare and legal professions. 

Programme Structure

Structure:

  • This programme is designed to provide a solid skills basis for independent research, and to guide you steadily towards the completion of a structured doctoral thesis, which is based on publishable journal articles and book chapters.
  • The programme itself is unique in its combination of group sessions in research methods and presentation events which are designed to ensure a genuine sense of community among researchers, and friendly but consistent supervision by world-class scholars in the field.
