OVERVIEW
The Doctor of Philosophy (Otorhinolaryngology) programme equips graduates to make substantial, original contributions to biomedical research and evidence-based healthcare in the discipline of Otorhinolaryngology. Building on the foundations of Master’s-level study, the programme is entirely research-based, with no coursework, and challenges students to undertake a more complex and in-depth independent research project under expert supervision. This provides advanced experience in designing, conducting, and critically analysing studies that generate new knowledge and address significant questions in medical science.
