IRC funding; already have a Masters

Maybe_Memories · 2016-11-01 16:14:30

I'm applying for IRC postgrad funding. I have a Bachelor degree and by the time the funding period starts I will have completed a two year Masters. Am I eligible to apply for "four year doctoral program"; one year course work plus three year research, or can I only apply for three year research?

Hi,

If you can I'd give your college's research office a quick ring tomorrow to double check. My understanding is you apply for one phd option. Either the three or four year phd that your college offers and that your supervisor has agreed to. Is the one year coursework related to your masters? If it is then you can add the years together for the irc. Good luck

Kevin
