History

Program Summary

The PhD in History is an advanced research degree, awarded on the basis of a thesis and an oral viva voce examination.

Every PhD student in the Faculty of History is supported by a supervisor (or in some cases, supervisors).

Supervisors are experts in their field of study and support students throughout the PhD.

Students will also benefit from the advice and support of other academic members of the Faculty who will be involved in progression through the various stages of the PhD, from the registration assessment exercise at the end of the first year through to the completion of the thesis.

Most of our PhD students study here full-time but each year we admit a number of students who wish to study on a part-time basis.
