“Supporting quality research depends on creating an organisational culture which values continuous improvement of a supportive environment for research and innovation” Cleland and Dolmans 2017, Medical Teacher

PhD Research Opportunities

A PhD (doctoral) programme of work must make a distinct contribution to knowledge and afford evidence of originality as shown by the exercise of independent critical powers. Yet a PhD is first and foremost a learning trajectory aimed at preparing you to conduct independent good research. Given this, research training in CHERI is supported closely by a dedicated Graduate School, who will work closely with you to ensure you receive excellent research-specific and generic skills training to equip you for future employment in research and other industries.
