Our PGRs and PhD Opportunities

CAHR has a strong community of postgraduate research students with excellent success rates and supports a variety of routes to PhD depending on individual needs and circumstances.  These include traditional PhDs, Professional Doctorates and PhD by Published Works.  More information about these routes can be found in our PhD Journey Guide.

All students who study for a PhD at Salford benefit from our strong PGR community through peer-to-peer support, alongside dedicated PGR training and seminars. Core training and induction is mandatory for all three years and covers topics such as ethics, IT essentials, communications skills and EDI and wellbeing. The cohort structure encourages peer support and increases PGRs to network with one another to build a community of researchers that can engage with activities that are accessible and inclusive. Further details and how to apply can be found at our Doctoral School here.
