Cranfield University at Silsoe offers five research degree programmes, which can be undertaken on a full or part-time basis. The degree is based on clinical research and work should constitute a substantial contribution to knowledge and afford evidence of originality either by the discovery of new facts or by the exercise of independent critical power. The minimum period of study is normally three years. There is a specific taught component in the programme as well as research of the same standard as a conventional PhD. Cranfield University at Silsoe has been participating in this programme since 1993. The degree involves an extended programme of study and research which may be entirely original or concerned with the application of existing ideas to a new area of study.
