About the Programme

Students in the MPhil and PhD degree programmes are required to successfully:
 

1.  Complete a minimum of six credits of coursework for MPhil/nine credits of coursework for PhD,
2.  Present seminars (2 for MPhil/3 for PhD), and
3.  Submit a thesis.

Students in the MPhil and PhD degree programmes should discuss with their Supervisor suitable courses which would satisfy the credit requirements. Courses should be completed in the first year.

Compulsory Seminar Presentations

For each seminar, candidates are required to write and present a paper to be photocopied and distributed beforehand on a topic arising out of their research, as well as to field questions put to them afterwards.

Candidates are required to present and defend a Thesis of acceptable scope and qualify for the degree. The Thesis must follow the guidelines set out in the University’s Thesis guide.

The successful completion of the required coursework, the compulsory Seminar presentations and the Thesis will lead to the award of the Degree.
