PhD Applications

PhD Applications Tutors

What is a PhD?

A PhD, otherwise known as a “Doctor of Philosophy” is the highest level of degree you can achieve. The content and structure of your PhD will vary depending on your institution, subject (e.g. humanities or STEM), and duration (e.g. full time or part time). There are also different types of PhD and doctorate programmes, with some involving more specialised work designed for practical or professional use. The most common PhD, however, essentially involves around 3-4 years of independent work wherein you will conduct your own original research. Our PhD applications tutors can help prepare your research proposals and guide you through the doctorate application process, including choosing the right research group and university.

The goal of your PhD will usually be to produce an essay (known as a thesis) of around 80,000 words on your research. Your entire PhD will be devoted to this work, with the aim being to offer original and significant contributions to the field. You will be assessed on this thesis alone and will usually be required to defend it in an oral presentation and exam. The structure of a PhD is not the same for everyone, but usually you can expect it to look like this:

• First year: Devise your study with your supervisor and write your literature review
• Second year: Collect your data
• Third year: Write up your thesis

While your PhD is centred on your thesis, your time at university will often involve additional exciting projects. For example, you may choose to supervise the small-scale projects of undergraduate students, organise conferences, and publish segments of your ongoing thesis. Being a PhD student means being part of a vibrant intellectual community and often includes access to lectures, conferences and seminars conducted by leading researchers in the field.

You may wish to study at PhD level because you want a career in academia; to hugely enhance a variety of skills that will demonstrate your desirability in job applications; or, simply, because you have a strong enthusiasm to closely explore a topic that has long been of interest to you. You may start a PhD at any point in your life. That said, this is not a decision to be made lightly: PhDs cost a lot, are highly time-consuming, and generally require you to have already completed both an undergraduate and master’s degree. As such, it is recommended that you thoroughly consider whether a PhD is a good choice for you.

What is involved in the PhD applications process?

There is no central system for applying for PhDs. Instead, you will need to research individual institutions and their faculties to see what PhDs and academic support they can offer. You will need to consider the length of study, the course structure, and the members of staff available to you – as well as any extra factors that are important to you. Deadlines may vary depending on the institution. Generally, to apply, the following will need to be done:

• Research the PhDs on offer at different institutions.
• Identify a supervisor within your chosen faculty. Usually you will need to contact them and propose your ideas, since they may be the ones overseeing your PhD.
• If they agree to supervise you, you will then need to develop a research proposal which you will submit alongside other parts of your application to the faculty.
• Submit two to three academic references, your CV, academic transcripts, and a personal statement. This will usually be done through an online portal provided by the faculty/university website.
• Typically, you will also need to submit applications for funding. PhDs are financially challenging and so most applicants apply to university-run or external funding bodies in order to get some financial assistance. Getting funding is usually much easier for those wishing to study a PhD in STEM than in the arts and humanities.
• You will need to hold an undergraduate degree and, most likely, a master’s degree.
• You will need to provide evidence of English language proficiency.
• You can submit applications to any number of universities, but applications tend to have a fee and are all individually time consuming.

Ultimately it is important to bear in mind that PhDs are exciting but tough, so make sure you look into this option carefully! PhDs are an incredibly rewarding experience that will allow you to develop interests, connections, skills, and a unique project of which you can be proud.

Feedback on Keystone Tutors

"We are coming to the end of the school year and I just wanted to say a big thank you for teaching and supporting my daughter who cannot praise you enough. Most amazingly, she has discovered her joy for creative writing and reading. As a direct result of all your work with my daughter her grades and her confidence have shot up and I can see that you are motivating her to go way beyond her school work. Her new school has noticed the change in her as well. She has received excellent and very encouraging feedback from both her English teachers and her writing is often used as examples during class."

"Kate was brilliant and just what we were after – someone to nurture a love of English rather than purely focusing on entrance exams. As a tutor, Kate has a wonderful warm manner and is engaging, fun and inspiring; my daughter thoroughly enjoyed her lessons. She was offered places at all the schools she applied to as well as an academic scholarship to one. So thank you for helping us with our tutor search – it’s tricky finding the right one but Kate was perfect."

"I would like to have a very special word for Sunita, as she is more than any parent or child could hope for. She is honest, hardworking and very courageous. Does not give up on her pupil and always makes sure that the goals are within reach. After a false start and after getting an A in her IGCSE, my daughter got an E in her As, with her confidence torn apart you found Sunita for us. It was hard at first Sunita is a professional. She made a great evaluation, she put a plan together and started to work. We have just received her grade, it was an A. I will like to quote my daughter's first words at 7.05 am. '' Dad I would not have done it without Sunita¨."

A PhD (Doctor of Philosophy) is the most common type of doctoral degree and the highest level of academic qualification you can achieve. 

It normally takes between three and four years of full-time work to complete. It is also possible to undertake a PhD part time, over five to six years.

The main activity of a PhD is to carry out an original research project under the direction of one or more supervisors, to be written up as a thesis.

Different routes to achieving a PhD

There are a number of ways to achieving a PhD at Imperial:

• by undertaking a course of study based on your own research proposal
• by joining a research project that comes with funding attached (known as a studentship)
• by combining it with Master's study in an integrated route that typically lasts four years

Pursuing your own research idea

To search for PhD opportunities based on your own research proposal you first need to identify a research group within Imperial whose area of expertise best matches your idea.

Use the links below to search the different PhD opportunities within our academic departments, centres and institutes. This includes information about current studentships and often guidance on finding a supervisor.

Our interdisciplinary approach means our expertise often spans departmental boundaries – and so do our courses – so you may find opportunities in an unexpected area of the university.

How far will I have to travel to get to the school?

Our team will endeavour to place you at a school which is in a reasonable distance from your home address (usually no more than an hour away), and will check with you before placing you at a school to ensure it is convenient for you to get to. Some of our tutors travel a fairly long way to school placements, and others work at schools very close to home. This is dependent on which schools we work with in your area.

We will pay travel expenses to and from your school placements, so cost should not be a limiting factor.

There may be some opportunities to deliver placements online.

Can I do more than one placement?

Yes, many of our PhD tutors run multiple placements in one term or return to work with us each term or year.

What happens if I have field work in the middle of a placement?

You will need to ensure you can commit to a full placement, as outlined above, before you agree to work in any given term. Once we have agreed dates with you and the school, these cannot be amended as the school will have made arrangements for the programme to run within this time frame.

What skills would I develop?

Working with The Brilliant Club enables researchers to develop communication skills, as they disseminate their research to a non-specialist audience, gain valuable teaching and public engagement experience and deepen their knowledge of the UK education system.

Further details about the skills developed are evidenced in our Researcher Development Case Study .

Will we be expected to understand the school curriculum?

No, we will provide thorough training to all successful candidates, and will ensure you understand the aspects of the curriculum that are relevant for your role.

Can I select which age group I work with?

You will be placed at the school that you are best suited to in terms of location and subject requirements. If there is a particular age group you would prefer, please inform your programme officer.

We work with pupils in:

– Key Stage 2 (years 5 and 6), aged 9-11

– Key Stage 3 (years 7 and 8), aged 11-13

– Key Stage 4 (years 9 and 10), aged 13-15

– Key Stage 5 (year 12), aged 16-17

How are the pupils selected?

We ask that schools select at least 55% of their group to meet at least one of our targeting criteria:

• Eligible for pupil premium funding (funds allocated to schools to provide additional support for pupils from more disadvantaged backgrounds)
• No parental history of higher education
• Living in postcodes that are in the lowest 2 quintiles of the IDACI postcode data (an indicator of deprivation)

This is to ensure we reach a broad range of pupils who are currently underrepresented at UK universities.

How are schools selected?

We work with any non-selective state schools in the UK who would like to take part.

Who pays for the programme?

Schools have to pay a contribution to the programme to cover our costs; schools do not charge individual pupils, and often use a government ‘pupil premium’ fund, which is designed to support the academic progress of students from disadvantaged backgrounds.
