专业简介
Degree awarded：Doctor of Philosophy
Duration：36 Months [Full-time]
Programme description
Professional doctorates take explicit account of the professional practice-base of the candidate and integrate this as a central knowledge base for an advanced research project. Professional doctorates reflect the need for structured forms of professional development and reflective practice across the arts sector. The programme aims to develop dynamic and interactive knowledge practices and outcomes that will have an impact across academic and non-academic contexts. It will support the development of reflective practice that can respond to and influence the complex, unpredictable and shifting social and cultural contexts within which practitioners operate.
The programme introduces practitioners to a range of dynamic and challenging concepts and methods with which to reflect critically and constructively on their professional practice. The programme will be taught within a learning environment and methodology informed by the principles of reflective practice, action or practice-based research and enquiry based learning. This pedagogical approach enables students' professional context to become a primary research resource.
Fees
For entry in the academic year beginning September 2017, the tuition fees are as follows:
•      PhD (full-time) International students (per annum): £17,000
Please note for the majority of projects where experimentation requires further resource: higher fee bands (where quoted) will be charged rather than the base rate for supervision, administration and computational costs. The fees quoted above will be fully inclusive and, therefore, you will not be required to pay any additional bench fees or administration costs.
All fees for entry will be subject to yearly review and incremental rises per annum are also likely over the duration of the course for UK/EU students (fees are typically fixed for International students, for the course duration at the year of entry). For general fees information please visit:  postgraduate fees. Always contact the department if you are unsure which fee applies to your project.
 
最低申请要求
Academic entry qualification overview
Successful completion of a Masters course with an overall classification of Merit or higher, or its overseas equivalent, with an element of research training, is a prerequisite for entry to a PhD. A research proposal must be included with the formal application materials.
English language
Students whose first language is not English require:
an overall IELTS score of 7.0 with 7.0 in the writing component
Interview requirements
Interviews will be structured around questions exploring professional experience, motivations for study and openness to critical consideration of professional practice.
The University requires Schools to interview all applicants to whom we consider making an offer. Interviews will be conducted by two academics, usually the proposed main supervisor and the subject or divisional PGR Director (or an assigned representative). The interview can be either face-to-face, via SKYPE, via conference call or via email. The interview serves several purposes: it allows us to get a better picture of the candidate's ability to carry out the proposed doctoral project than the research proposal on its own; it allows us to communicate to the student what the proposed supervisor(s) can bring to the project; and it allows us to discuss with the candidate directly any potential problems with the practical aspects of their studies and explore solutions together.
 
Other entry requirements
The University requires you to reside within a commutable distance from Manchester during your time as a registered student, unless you are on approved fieldwork/a formal placement or are on a period of Submission pending. This is to ensure that you are able to meet attendance expectations and participate in wider research activities within your discipline area and/or School. Should you be unable to do this at any point during your programme, a formal case must be made to the Faculty office, together with the full support of your supervisor(s). The University reserves the right to reject such a request where it is considered that your residency could have a detrimental impact on the progression and engagement of your studies.
 
课程设置
 
Progress will be monitored primarily via individual supervisions. The key milestones are represented by the assessment for each stage of the process. These are:
Year 1: literature review and research essay (12,000 words in total)
Year 2: conference paper and publishable article (6-8000 words)
Year 3: research proposal and portfolio of reflective practice (10,000 words in total)
Year 4-6: individual targets appropriate to the completion of the thesis research
Year 6: thesis of 50,000 words or practical outcome accompanied by 20-50,000 word dissertation. 
The programme is structured on the basis that the most suitable pathway is the part-time route. However, there is a negotiable full-time route in special cases (which may be more desirable, for example, for students who have accessed funding to support an extended break from the profession, or for retired professionals). Full-time students will have 12 individual supervisions per year, twice-yearly `research panels' and access to additional support at residential long weekends to ensure that they can meet key milestone.
