Overview

In the Political Economy Research programme from King's College London, we have an open an inclusive research culture that encourages debate between the contesting theories, approaches and ideologies.

Features

Our vision of what political economy is lends itself to an interdisciplinary approach, and there is a wide range of methodological and theoretical approaches used across the department.

This provides a stimulating environment for PhD research that fosters open-minded and critical scholarship.

Programme Structure

Curriculum:

All students on the doctoral programme are initially registered for an MPhil. At the beginning of the programme you will work with your supervisors to assess your individual training needs.

You will use this to develop a personalised training schedule that draws on foundational and advanced courses made available to you through the King’s Centre for Doctoral Studies, the London Interdisciplinary Social Science Doctoral Training Partnership (LISS-DTP) and the Bloomsbury Postgraduate Skills Network.

These courses will hone your academic skills and prepare you for the demands of your specific research project.
