How to Find a Supervisor

Prior to application, you are strongly advised to browse the Department's , and find the group and supervisor closest to your interests.  It is highly recommended that you contact this supervisor before making an application.  Not all of our supervisors are able to accommodate MPhil projects, and so applying without having contacted a potential supervisor may lead to disappointment.

You must name at least one supervisor with whom you wish to work on the application form.  If you are admitted you may be allocated to a supervisor other than the one named.  If no supervisor is named, then your application will be automatically rejected.
