Admission
Fees
Applicants should approach the prospective supervisor or the post-graduate administrator (who will advise on a suitable prospective supervisor).
Applicants need to discuss their research proposal with the prospective supervisor, who will offer advice on the topic and on completing the application form. The discussions can take place in person or via telephone, email or letter.
The formal application must have supporting documentation (including references and a statement from the prospective supervisor) and will be submitted to the Institute's Higher Research Degrees Committee (HRDC), who will forward a copy of the materials to the Registrar of the School of Advanced Study. In assessing the application the HRDC will satisfy itself that:
• the student's qualifications are acceptable;
• the research proposal meets the required academic and practical criteria
• the research proposal has been adequately discussed by the student with the prospective supervisor and has the supervisor's support;
• training and other academic support needs have been assessed and can be met;
• the proposed starting date and other relevant dates will allow the candidate to take part in training and other relevant activities of the Institute and the School
• The research proposal which is to be considered by the HRDC should:
• define the research question or problem to be addressed;
• indicate the main objectives of the research;
• specify why the question or problem is important, what other research has been done in the area (supported by a short bibliography of no more than one side of A4), and how the research will contribute to understanding in the area;
• indicate the methods and sources to be used;
• not exceed 1000 words, plus the bibliography.
The Institute's Higher and Research Degrees Committee (HRDC) normally meets four time a year (late October, January, March and June).
Completed applications and research proposals must arrive at the Institute at least ten days before the meeting at which they are to be considered.
The Institute's decision on an application will be communicated to the student and to the School's Registrar shortly after the meeting at which the application was considered. Thereafter the School registry will send out offer letters.
