Program Overview:
Duration: 3 Years Total ECTS: 240
PhD program consists of 7 courses (21 credits in total), plus a Seminar (non-credit) and a Thesis (non-credit). After a success completion of the courses, students are asked to take the qualification exam. Students who complete the program must not receive a grade lower than B. The success pass of the Qualification Exam will allow students to start working on their Thesis. The minimum duration of the thesis is 3 semesters and each semester students have to take and pass a monitoring jury. The students have to complete publishing requirements before the Thesis Defence.
Supervision and Monitoring:
Upon embarking on the PhD journey at the MEW School of Leadership, students enroll in a structured 3-year program, although slight adjustments in the timeline may occur. Each student is assigned Principal and Second Supervisors based on their subject specialization. Additionally, a dedicated Departmental PhD Coordinator is appointed to provide overarching academic and pastoral support, overseeing various aspects such as induction, supervision, progression, and examination.
Regular meetings with supervisors are scheduled monthly, during which students are required to complete, sign, and submit meeting records for review. These records are then evaluated by the supervisory team and filed for assessment. Progress is closely monitored through Thesis Committee meetings held at the end of the first and second years. During these meetings, students present their progress and receive feedback to ensure satisfactory advancement.
Progress of Program:
The PhD program is divided into two segments, both running concurrently:
Segment 1: In this segment, emphasis is placed on taught modules, providing a structured framework for skill and knowledge development essential for doctoral-level research. Throughout the first year, students engage in a series of modules, each spanning a two-month period and accompanied by webinars. These modules not only facilitate skill enhancement but also foster critical thinking and reflection, laying a robust foundation for research endeavors.
Segment 2: Running parallel to Segment 1, Segment 2 focuses on research and write-up leading to the submission of the PhD thesis. Key milestones include:
- Year 1: Extended Research Proposal (ERP) submission and Literature Review Chapter(s) Draft.
- Year 2: Submission of Research Methodology Chapter Draft, Data collection and analysis, Submission of Findings and Analysis Chapter(s) Draft.
- Year 3: Submission of Discussion, Conclusions and Recommendations, and Introduction Chapter Drafts, Final write-up, and Viva Exam.

At the MEW School of Leadership, student well-being and academic integrity are paramount. A robust support system is in place to address grievances or concerns, with the Departmental PhD Coordinator serving as the primary point of contact. Additionally, adherence to research ethics and integrity is emphasized, with students required to obtain ethical approval before commencing research activities.
