The programme emphasises applied, impactful, and neuro-affirming research that improves outcomes, wellbeing, and opportunities for children, young people, and their families. The PhD is designed as a programme combining advanced research methods training and individual, supervised research, leading to an 80,000 word thesis. The thesis is expected to be a substantial original contribution to knowledge and, in principle, to have the potential to be developed into peer-reviewed publication. Teaching and learning The PhD programme has an Advanced Research Methods training element that is compulsory, and all students complete an Upgrade examination (a written portfolio and oral examination) in order to progress from MPhil to PhD. Students work with their supervisors on their independent projects throughout the course. We have research work rooms within the department that students can access.
