One of the most important features of a PhD is that you are guided by the leading scholars in your fields of interest.
If you are reading this, then this may be because you know that the world specialist in your topic is based at one of our consortium institutions. Or perhaps one of our consortium members is your most accessible world-class institution.
Once you have identified a scholar who works in the area you are interested in, you are advised to reach out directly to that specialist as soon as possible to ask if they would be interested in and able to supervise your proposed topic.
One of the unique features of the SWWDTP is that we provide co-supervision. Since arts and humanities research in inherently interdisciplinary, and has broad social and practical applicability, we enable you to be supervised by world-class researchers across the fields that your project encompasses.
Discuss with your proposed home institution supervisor who else in our consortium would be well placed to co-supervise your research project to create the ideal supervisory team, or browse through the following options to see who is doing research in your area of interest within our consortium.
