FAQs
- Applicants usually need a strong first-class or upper-second-class honours degree in law (or equivalent). A Master’s degree is not always required but is common among candidates. Demonstrated research potential and alignment with faculty expertise are essential.
- Each student is assigned a faculty supervisor who meets with them regularly to discuss progress and provide feedback. Students typically meet their supervisor about nine times per year, with more frequent meetings in the first term.
- The legal research course provides training in methodology, exposes students to a wide range of legal scholarship, and helps them approach their own research questions. It consists of seminars in theory, methods, and empirical approaches.
- The programme comprises two parts: a compulsory legal research methods course during the first two terms, and a research dissertation (between 25,000 and 30,000 words) submitted in the final term.
- The MPhil in Law is a one-year, full-time research master’s degree. It can be taken as a standalone qualification or as preparation for doctoral study (DPhil).
