Applying for Professional Doctorate Research Degrees
Professional Doctorates are designed for professionals and practitioners who wish to engage in research that can make concrete transformations to their practice. This could be within, for example, an organisation, the work of a profession, or the practice of an individual. Professional Doctorates combine a structured taught approach with the development of research skills through a doctoral thesis. Students also often work in a cohort with other students in their year group.
