How to apply for a CCBS postgraduate research degree
How to apply for a PhD in Clinical Brain Sciences, or an MScR or PhD in Psychiatry.
To undertake a PhD or MScR with us, you first need to identify:
(1) a primary supervisor and
(2) research project.
Please don’t make an application via the University's Degree Finder before you have established both, as we will not be able to accept you.
For a PhD, there are three routes to finding a supervisor and research project. For an MScR, please follow route C.
CCBS PhD application routes A and B: applying to a funded PhD programme or individual project
The most common way to secure a supervisor and a project in the Centre for Clinical Brain Sciences is to apply for a funded programme or individual project.
CCBS MScR/PhD enquiry route C: devising a bespoke project
An alternative route to finding a supervisor and a project is available for prospective students who can self-fund or who have very specific research interests. This route is also the one to take for the Psychiatry MScR.
