Course summary

The PhD in Interdisciplinary Policy Studies aims to foster your scholarly and career interests and to prepare you for the world of academic research and policy work. The programme is interdisciplinary and focuses on questions of social justice and social transformation. Students are invited to draw on a range of social science and humanities perspectives and methodologies including sociology, anthropology, cultural studies, history and applied philosophy as well as participatory, creative and arts-based methodologies.The programme is designed for students who are interested in approaches to social and policy analysis that are both critical and problem-solving. Our interest in and interpretation of policy is rooted in a conception of policy as felt, made and remade in everyday life that is, as co-constitutive of social worlds, subjectivities and identities. Our research illuminates social and policy processes and effects in a range of global and local contexts.Our extensive research training for MPhil/PhD students consists of an initial foundation programme which covers different approaches in the social sciences. It gives you a firm grounding in key social science theories and methodologies and invites students to grapple with experimental and innovative epistemologies. There is a strong focus on critical, feminist, queer, materialist, postcolonial and anti-racist theories as well as participatory, creative and engaged methodologies in CPPR. Graduate students and faculty discuss these in regular Theory and Methods seminars.
