About the Program

Research in strategy, organisations, entrepreneurship, HRM, operations and marketing.

Subject Requirements

  • Relevant academic background and a research proposal aligned with departmental expertise.

Academic requirements

  • Research-degree entry normally requires a strong relevant academic background. Durham's general guidance states that postgraduate research applicants normally require a Master's degree or international equivalent, although exact requirements vary by department and research programme. Applicants must also demonstrate suitable research preparation and a viable proposal.

English Language Requirements

  • IELTS Academic 7.0 overall with no element below 6.5, or accepted equivalent.

ATAS may be required for certain Science, Engineering or Technology research areas.
