  • Doctoral Study and the Methodist Church
    Doctoral Study and the Methodist Church The Methodist Church encourages its members, deacons and presbyters to think and reflect on our faith. For some this reflection may take the form of PhD study. The purpose of this e-booklet is to help show Methodists, and others, where they might engage in PhD or professional doctorate research in a Methodist or Methodist related context. The colleges detailed here are not the only potential colleges. The list is comprised of two colleges that are part of the Discipleship & Ministries Learning Network of the Methodist Church (Cliff College, the Queen’s Foundation), two colleges with very long connections to Methodism (Wesley House Cambridge and Wesley Study Centre Durham) plus the Urban Theology Unit which is an ecumenical research centre with very strong Methodist links. The colleges are listed in alphabetical order. There are other institutions with long-term Methodist involvement such as Oxford Brookes University and the University of Roehamption, and others with more recent but close Methodist links such as Liverpool Hope University. There are numerous significant institutions across the world that are related to the global Methodist movement in various ways. It is our hope that this booklet will help point people to useful institutions and make potential PhD candidates aware of colleges’ subject specialisms, costs and contact details. Cliff College, located in the heart of the Peak District, has a successful PhD provision, with around 20 students working both part-time and full-time, in the UK and overseas. We have two programmes validated by the University of Manchester. The standard PhD can be undertaken either on a full-time, 3 year basis, or a part-time, 6 year basis.
