PhD in Art History

University of St Andrews

The PhD is a research degree based upon three years (six semesters) or full-time study or six years (12 semesters) of part-time study. Students are initially registered as General Research Students for a probationary period of twelve months. After a progress review, which includes the submission of a substantive piece of written work for evaluation, students are registered for the PhD. The degree examination is based upon a thesis of no more than 80,000 words, which is expected to make a significant and original contribution to the discipline.
