A PhD, also known as a doctorate, is a requirement for a career as an academic or researcher.

The Department of English Language and Linguistics offers supervision from world-class academics with expertise in a wide range of disciplines, able to support and guide students through their research. Students' progress is carefully monitored to ensure that they are on track to produce a thesis that is valued by the academic community. Throughout the programme, students are able to attend and contribute to research seminars, workshops, and research and transferable skills training courses.
