How does part-time PhD study work?
Distance learning is how the majority of our part-time PhD students choose to study. There is no compulsory attendance, but you would need to discuss with your supervisor how to arrange the panel at which your registration for PhD is confirmed, further review panels, and the final viva voce. A number of options are available for this, though face to face panels are preferred. We hold PhD workshops twice a year, in November and June, which are over two consecutive days. Students are encouraged to attend, and there is a strong expectation of attendance on at least one workshop a year.
