Online PhD UK-Roehampton University
By onlinephd |
Today here on our blog of online PhD UK, we will be looking at the possibility of doing “PhD by Published Work” through university of Surrey Roehampton. Looking back at the history of university, the Roehampton University was established in 2004, but with a history that dates back to the 1840s. The university is founded in the tradition of commitment to equality, which is why Roehamption has students from various cultural backgrounds. It may be one of the newest universities in the UK, but it already prides itself with a wide range of expertise in various fields of study. The university specializes in arts and humanities, social sciences, education, and human & life sciences. As such, the students are able to acquire and develop skills necessary to succeed in the area of study. The university allows the students to interact with a diverse community and be immersed in a culture that promotes the importance of diversity in light of globalization. This is one way of preparing students for the fast changing world business landscape.
The University also has a national and international reputation for various research efforts. As such, Roehampton boasts of a thriving academic research culture, which makes offering research degrees a very viable option for students. The research degrees can lead to an academic career or a career in research and development and consultancy.
With “PhD by Published Work” program, Roehampton University is allowing to submit a thesis which contains earlier published research work. This is an alternative route to the traditional PhD. The published works should be able to be proven to have a substantial contribution to the chosen area of study. This program is designed for people to get their formal recognition for having the research skills on a particular subject area. As compared to other universities, Roehampton University has an open policy to accept applications from all around the world. So if you are an established researcher, working in academia, than Roehampton University can be the best option for you.
As we have mentioned in our earlier blogs that apart from established academia members, if you are a future PhD candidate and looking for a low residency PhD from UK universities, PhD by Published work can be one of the options for you. However you need a degree (Masters degree if you are from Asian countries) and research portfolio containing research papers from research journals or as book chapters. Although it is quite hard work and you might need a regular contact with your local university research department and professors. But if think that you are short of money and it is quite impossible for you reach directly to any UK university (as fees are extremely high for you) than instead of just thinking and planning, you can start working on this route. However we must warn that all of the UK universities will register you for one year (full time) and two years part-time (prior to submitting your actual thesis). So you need one year registration fee, however you might be exempted from compulsory residency requirement. About “no residency” possibility, you must check relevant research department or supervisor, as various universities have different rules.
In this coming week, online PhD UK blog will bring more universities, providing Online or distance PhDs with low or no residency possibility, so check this blog regularly.
