Course Details

The Strategy and International Business PhD programme is a way for you to hone your specialism in the area, and to improve your skills in research, academic writing, presentation, and practice. While developing and setting up your research projects, you will initially receive general and project-specific training to enable you to conduct your research effectively and independently.? As a PhD student, you will be assigned a supervisory team consisting 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 guidance of their supervisory team. Due to the nature of PhD study, our students spend a large amount of time studying and engaging in independent research. Students are required to have supervision meetings regularly to discuss their progress, devise an action plan for the next steps of their research or project, and to receive suggestions from their supervisory team on how to improve their project.

Normally, our PhD students are registered for an MPhil and are expected to transfer from the MPhil to a PhD programme within the first twelve months of their study. The transfer process requires students to produce a substantial piece of work (e.g., literature review and proposed methods chapters) and apply for ethics approval. Students will be required to present their written piece of work to an academic audience and then proceed for an internal viva examination with an academic member of staff at the faculty as examiner. The transfer viva process, appointment of the internal examiner, and approval of ethics documents are all subject to approval by the university research committees.
