What Is Included in Our PhD Application Support Package?

From identifying an impactful research angle and finding the right supervisor, to devising a strong proposal and securing funding, it’s easy to feel lost while applying for a PhD. To ease this pressure, we’ve developed a structured 9-step support package to address every aspect of your application to the highest standard.

  • 1. One-to-One Consultation

    Begin your PhD journey with a personalised 60-minute Zoom consultation led by a senior academic in your field. This will be a collaborative discussion aimed at shaping an application strategy fully aligned with your needs.

    Making a strong first impression is vital when reaching out to potential supervisors. You’ll be provided with custom-written emails that highlight your background and align your interests with the research focus of each professor.

  • 6. PhD Research Proposal

    Once you’ve selected your preferred title, your academic will develop a 1,500-word research proposal detailing your research questions, methodology, and contribution to the field. This will be tailored to align with your potential supervisor’s research interests.
