International Development PhD

The University of Edinburgh

The PhD in International Development is a research programme in which you will make an original contribution to knowledge by pursuing an extended and focused piece of research on a topic of interest to you.We strongly encourage and support interdisciplinary research, and welcome students who are keen to develop doctoral research projects in collaboration with third parties (NGOs, multilateral/bilateral agencies, campaign groups, or media organisations).The International Development PhD programme is usually undertaken full-time over three years, or part-time over six years.
