Course Details

This Organisational Behaviour PhD programme is a way for you to develop your specialism and improve your skills in research, academic writing, presentation, and practice. While developing your research projects, you will receive general, as well as project-specific training to enable you to conduct your research effectively and independently.?Normally, our PhD students are initially registered for an MPhil and within the first twelve months of their study are expected to transfer from the MPhil to a PhD programme. The transfer process requires students to produce a detailed research proposal and apply for ethics approval. Students will be required to present their written piece of work to an academic audience and then proceed for the internal viva examination with an internal transfer viva examiner. The transfer viva process, appointment of the internal examiner, and approval of ethics documents are all subject to approval by the University’s research committees.

All PhD students are assigned a supervisory team which will consist of a Director of Study (DOS), and first and second supervisors. Our students are required to work independently on their research, under the advice and direct supervision of their supervisory team.

Due to the nature of PhD study, our students may expect to spend most of their time, studying and engaging in research independently. Students are required to attend regular supervision meetings to discuss their progress, devise an action plan for the next steps, and to receive suggestions from their supervisory team on how to improve and proceed with their project.
