Doctorate Programme, London

Phd
By Flexible
Mode Research

ON-CAMPUS, ONLINE, HYBRID OR
HONORARY DOCTORATE BASED OVER PROFESSIONAL
EXPERIENCE OR RESEARCH ACCOMPLISHMENTS.

Our PhD by FLEXIBLE MODE programme allows you to benefit from our professional and academic support and the expertise of a supervisor, while conducting your research in a location that suits your circumstances. The programme is available to candidates who need to study for most of their registration period at another site, whether in the UK, or worldwide. Acceptance for PhD by Distance is subject to the approval of the supervisors and the relevant school or department. There are several reasons why you may wish to base yourself away from LONDON or OXFORD while undertaking your PhD:

  • You have an extensive fieldwork element to your research.
  • You have responsibilities (e.g. caring or employment) that prevent you from attending on campus.
  • You are already based and/or employed in an environment that is relevant and conducive to their research.
  • You do not reside within travelling distance of LONDON or OXFORD.
  • You are based in a UK research organisation/institution with a collaborative agreement with the LONDON INSTITUTE OF SKILLS DEVELOPMENT in place.

ELIGIBILITY
YOU MUST MEET THE FOLLOWING CRITERIA:

  • Satisfactory performance in our English language proficiency test.
  • The candidate has a research project which can be undertaken successfully, no regular access to campus should be essential for successful completion of the research.
  • The candidate has independent access to the resources needed to successfully complete their research; this will vary between candidates and projects but may include access to archives, facilities, data collection, digital infrastructure or space in their off-campus location.
  • The candidate is well motivated to work alone; they understand that it is not an online learning programme and has reduced access to campus training as your doctoral degree does not mention the mode as online.
  • The candidate, where appropriate, has access to support from a local supervisor or mentor with experience in the academic field and also of supporting students or equivalent researchers. Advisors/mentors may be appointed to provide a regular point of contact, and are normally in a position to act as an ‘advocate’ and provide pastoral care if needed.

Registration valid for 4 years. You may complete it in 1.5 – 2 years under your supervisor’s guidance.
