Hi everyone, I am interested in doing a part-time phd in the UK. I am wondering if it is usual or possible to do this from abroad since I live in Germany. Anyone have any experience? I am somewhat confused as to how to go about doing this. Call an appropriate supervisor and make an appointment to see this person? Or write a letter to this person first?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi Margarete,

Hopefully someone will be able to offer you some advice, but I would suggest finding some possible PhDs and sending enquiries regarding the option of distance learning:

Good luck!

Hi Reenie

Thanks for the reply. That's what I have been doing recently. I'm sure something will eventually materialize.
