hey - thanks for this. Really appreciate your response. Yes, it is definitely my hope to stay on. But the department is small so I just wanted to make sure there would be an option to take the full PhD elsewhere if scholarships weren't possible there, and were available at other institutions (I would really struggle to self-fund). So you are saying that this is 'allowed' even if it's not ideal, right? (as in, other supervisors would be interested even if they haven't supervised the mphil?)
Ta,
Adam
I'm considering doing an MPhil at Sussex, with a view to going to a PhD - but because I will not be able to self-fund a PhD, where I do it will depend on what scholarships/support is around (which may not be possible at Sussex). Can you take your Mphil outline from one Uni and pursue the full PhD at another one if necessary? Does an MPhil 'stand-alone' as an academic achievement?
No-one seems to me be able to give me a simple answer to this one! Any advice would be so much appreciated,
