Postgraduate Studies, English, Department and University Resources, Department of English, University of Wales, Lampeter Postgraduate Studies Lampeter MA MPhil and PhD Degrees. The Department is of humane size and the atmosphere welcoming. Our graduates are encouraged to share ideas with staff in seminars, and attend postgraduate all-Wales conferences. The qualifications of M.Phil and Ph.
D are available by pursuing research on an agreed topic with a personal supervisor.
We normally have about 20 such postgraduates at various stages of their research in any one year. A distinctive feature is that there is a facility for undertaking the M.Phil or Ph. Currently we have several students from the United States, Japan, and Greece employing this mode of study. The department would particularly welcome research proposals in these specialisms, in which its staff have published, but may also supervise topics in many other areas of the subject. The normative standard for UK graduates is an upper-second honours degree, in English or in an allied subject.
