Overview
Professional Development
Professional development is a crucial element of doctoral study, not only in supporting your research but also as part of your longer term career development. Our DoctoralSkills workshops and courses will help you build your skills and help you succeed in your doctorate.
Research content
You will be expected to undertake multiple studies – either involving the collection of new data, analysing secondary data or conducting a systematic review – during your PhD, and the intention is that some or all of the work should be of publishable quality.
You will have at least two supervisors and would usually meet with your lead supervisor on a weekly or fortnightly basis (in the case of full-time students). This Psychology programme is offered at the University of Bath.
