All students on the doctoral programme are registered for an MPhil in the first instance. At the beginning of the program, students will work with their supervisors to assess their individual training needs. Students will use this to develop a personalized training schedule that draws on foundational and advanced courses made available to students through the School, the King’s Centre for Doctoral Studies and the London Interdisciplinary Social Science Doctoral Training Partnership (LISS-DTP). These courses will hone their academic skills and prepare them for the demands of their specific research project.
