Programme Structure

Structure and research:

Before commencing their doctoral training, prospective doctoral researchers need to find a Faculty member who agrees to be their thesis supervisor.
This supervisor will act as the main source of research mentoring and will provide candidates with access to the research infrastructure they need.
Thesis topics usually relate to the research interests of the professors in our Faculty.
