LLM Law by Research
1 year | January, July, September..
We offer three programmes of postgraduate study by research, all in either full-time or part-time mode. These are degrees by research which require an original contribution to the body of knowledge in a particular academic or professional discipline.
LLM by research – 1 academic year of full-time study or 2 years of part-time study.
MPhil – 2 academic years of full-time study or 4 years of part-time study.
DPhil – 3 academic years of full-time study or 6 years of part-time study.
Normally, postgraduate students wishing to register for our DPhil programme must first register for the MPhil and seek conversion at a later stage. The School operates a system of preliminary registration for all research degrees to allow students to prepare a formal proposal during their first two terms of study. All research students must also subject their work to an annual progress review.
