King's Doctoral College

Empowering our doctoral researchers to realise their ambitions and impact society.

King's Doctoral College is a hub for everyone involved in doctoral research across King’s.

We collaborate with students, supervisors and staff to build a thriving, inclusive doctoral research community.

We set, monitor and enhance standards across King's to maintain an outstanding student and staff experience.

We foster and celebrate outstanding supervisory practice.

We provide excellent training, development and funding opportunities that attract high quality doctoral students to King's and enable them to flourish.

We form partnerships within and beyond King’s to ensure a world-class research culture and environment.

Doctoral students are members of the Doctoral College from the point of enrolment up until 6 months after leaving King’s. We work in close partnership with King’s Doctoral Students Association, the representative body for doctoral students, to ensure our support is as effective as possible.
