What is the PhD/MSc programme?
After a very short induction period during which some basic training is provided students start a research project in their supervisors laboratory. Whilst working on their main projects students participate in a comprehensive skills training programme over the 4 years which includes workshops, seminars, symposia etc. There is no compulsory course work. There are Wellcome Trust 4 year DPhil Programmes which involve course work and rotations through 2-3 laboratories in the first year before the main research project begins.
