Location of University of Bristol
The PhD and LLM by research are substantially different from other types of postgraduate work. It is the responsibility of each student to devise an independent research project to be undertaken under the supervision of a member of staff. Appropriate research training will be given by the School. If you are undertaking socio-legal research, this will take the form of the MSc Socio-Legal Studies Programme, which is recognised by the ESRC.
All research students are registered for the LLM by Research, and are upgraded to the PhD programme around the end of their first year on demonstration of a satisfactory level of performance.
