What is part-time PhD and full-time PhD?

When studying full-time in the UK, a conventional PhD takes about four years to complete. The majority of PhD candidates reside at or near the university during their studies and do their thesis research in either a lab or an office setting.

Part-time PhD degrees are also accessible for students who want to work while finishing their thesis or who have other job and personal obligations. Part-time PhDs can last up to seven years and are available at most universities.Throughout, you will have access to the university’s facilities and assistance.If you find that studying for a PhD part-time isn’t working out for you, you can register as a full-time PhD student.
