  • Edge Hill University
    Edge Hill University Research Student Handbook January 2011 Introduction The Process of Research Degree Study at Edge Hill University There are four levels of registration available to Postgraduate Research Degree students at Edge Hill University: i) Postgraduate Certificate (PgC) in Research ii) MPhil iii) MPhil with the possibility of transfer to PhD (MPhil/PhD) and iv) PhD. Students seeking the award of MPhil will either initially be registered on the PgC in Research, or they will be registered for MPhil without the possibility of transfer to PhD registration. Students seeking the award of PhD may be offered initial registration on the PgC in Research, MPhil/PhD registration, or direct PhD registration. Registration at all levels is available on either a part-time or full-time basis. All appropriately qualified applicants for research degrees at Edge Hill are interviewed and decisions regarding registration are made following interview. Students whose registration is initially on the PgC in Research complete, as the assessment for the PgC, a 10-15,000-word research proposal and have a viva voce examination to determine whether a recommendation should be made to the Graduate School Board of Studies that their registration progress to MPhil or MPhil/PhD registration. The PgC is an exit award only, so students who progress to at least MPhil registration, and are ultimately successful in gaining a higher award will not be awarded the PgC in Research. Only students who elect not to progress, or who are unsuccessful in their attempts to gain a higher award, will be awarded a PgC in Research.

  • Edge Hill University Location of IP Policy: Click Here Ease Of
    UK UNIVERSITY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RANKING 2020 Institution: Edge Hill University Location Of IP Policy: Click Here Ease Of Finding Document: Easy Current Tier: Tier 2 TIER 2 - CRITERIA A university-wide IP policy exists and is retrievable and downloadable, sometimes with a medium degree of difficulty, following a Google search using natural language and keyword combinations such as ‘UniName IP policy’ or ‘UniName intellectual property policy’. Some of the retrieved policies are unusually short (only 2 to 4 pages). Although the policy is exceptionally clear as to students’ IP ownership rights, it also includes IP policies for staff, academic visitors and other persons engaged with the university. Nonetheless, the students’ IP provisions of the IP policy may be viewed as a stand-alone section.

  • North West Introduction the North West Has an Area of Around 14,100 Km2 and a Population of Almost 6.9 Million
    North West Introduction The North West has an area of around 14,100 km2 and a population of almost 6.9 million. The metropolitan areas of Greater Manchester and Merseyside are the most significant centres of population; other major urban areas include Liverpool, Blackpool, Blackburn, Preston, Chester and Carlisle. The population density is 490 people per km2, making the North West the most densely populated region outside London. This population is largely concentrated in the southern half of the region; Cumbria in the north has just 24 people per km2. The economy The economic output of the North West is almost £119 billion, which represents 13 per cent of the total UK gross value added (GVA), the third largest of the nine English regions. The region is very varied economically: most of its wealth is created in the heavily populated southern areas. The unemployment rate stood at 7.5 per cent in the fourth quarter of 2010, compared with the UK rate of 7.9 per cent. The North West made the highest contribution to the UK’s manufacturing industry GVA, 13 per cent of the total in 2008. It was responsible for 39 per cent of the UK’s GVA from the manufacture of coke, refined petroleum products and nuclear fuel, and 21 per cent of UK manufacture of chemicals, chemical products and man-made fibres. It is also one of the main contributors to food products, beverages, tobacco and transport equipment manufacture. Gross disposable household income (GDHI) of North West residents was one of the lowest in the country, at £13,800 per head.

  • Regional Profiles North-West 29 ● Cumbria Institute of the Arts Carlisle College__▲■✚ University of Northumbria at Newcastle (Carlisle Campus)
    North-West Introduction The North-West has an area of around 14,000 km2 and a population of over 6.3 million. The metropolitan area of Greater Manchester is by far the most significant centre of population, with 2.5 million people in the city and its wider conurbation. Other major urban areas are Liverpool, Blackpool, Blackburn, Preston, Chester and Carlisle. The population density is 477 people per km2, making the North-West the most densely populated region outside London. However, the population is largely concentrated in the southern half of the region. Cumbria, by contrast, has the third lowest population density of any English county. Economic development The economic output of the North-West is around £78 billion, which is 10 per cent of the total UK GDP. The region is very varied economically, with most of its wealth created in the heavily populated southern areas. Important manufacturing sectors for employment and wealth creation are chemicals, textiles and vehicle engineering. Unemployment in the region is 5.9 per cent, compared with the UK average of 5.4 per cent. There is considerable divergence in economic prosperity within the region. Cheshire has an above average GDP, while Merseyside ranks as one of the poorest areas in the UK. The total income of higher education institutions in the region is around £1,400 million per year. Higher education provision There are 15 higher education institutions in the North-West: eight universities and seven higher education colleges. An additional 42 further education colleges provide higher education courses. There are almost 177,000 full-time equivalent (FTE) students in higher education in the region.
