PhD Programmes

The normal length of full-time PhD programme is three years, and is based at XJTLU.

Upon successful completion, our PhDs will receive a degree from the University of Liverpool, which is recognised by the UK’s Department of Education as well as China’s Ministry of Education.

The PhD candidates will be appointed a designated primary (local) supervisor at XJTLU, who is a full-time member of academic staff. In addition, the candidates will also have a designated secondary supervisor based at the University of Liverpool.

They have the opportunity to apply for a research visit to the University of Liverpool for up to three months. The accommodation and travel fees will be covered by XJTLU and the University of Liverpool. Full-time PhD students are funded to attend local and international conferences during their studies.
