Part time study and flexible working arrangements

Alongside supporting flexible working the Fusion CDT welcomes part-time applications.

Part-time study will be considered on a case-by-case basis. In addition to the usual considerations including funding and suitability for doctoral study, assessment of part-time applications will include whether the requirements of the project can be accommodated alongside the applicant’s non-PhD commitments (typically in discussion with the candidate following interview). Offers for part-time study can only be made when the registering university offers part-time doctoral study and when it is known that two consecutive years of the taught portion of the programme can be delivered.

If you are interested in part-time study please contact the relevant project supervisor to discuss. Please also contact the Fusion CDT programme director (Roddy Vann – roddy.vann@york.ac.uk) to discuss the taught programme.
