Master of Science [M.Sc] [Electronics and Nanoscale Engineering] From University of Glasgow

You will be expected to meet with your supervisor at regular intervals and have a formal supervisory board meeting every six months (or once-a-year if studying part-time) to review progress.Within our Department, our PhD students are usually encouraged to undertake our taught module, Research Methods, in the first year of study, so you are well equipped with the necessary skills to undertake effective research. A PhD (taking at least three years) typically involves wide reading round the subject area in your first year, then gradually developing original results over your second and third years, before writing them up in a coherent fashion. The resulting thesis is expected to extend the understanding of a specialist topic, and should not exceed 80,000 words in length.
