Actuarial Science PhD

Degree awarded: Doctor of Philosophy

Duration: 36 Months. [Full-Time]

Entry requirements: Applicants would usually be expected to have a 1st or upper 2nd class honours degree at undergraduate Masters level or an MSc Merit or Distinction (or an equivalent overseas qualification) in a mathematical subject. In some research areas a background in physics, engineering or computer science is also acceptable.

Course fees: For entry in the academic year beginning September 2013, the tuition fees are as follows:

• PhD (full-time)
  UK/EU students (per annum): £3,900
  International students (per annum): £16,500

Please note for the majority of projects where experimentation requires further resource: higher fee bands (where quoted) will be charged rather than the base rate for supervision, administration and computational costs. The fees quoted above will be fully inclusive and, therefore, you will not be required to pay any additional bench fees or administration costs.

All fees for entry will be subject to yearly review and incremental rises per annum are also likely over the duration of the course for UK/EU students (fees are typically fixed for International students, for the course duration at the year of entry).
