London School of Economics PhD in Accounting – Call for Applications
Description
London School of Economics PhD in Accounting – Call for Applications
The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) is a leading social science institution, internationally recognised for its excellence in teaching, research and public engagement.
The Department of Accounting at LSE is strongly committed to creating and disseminating knowledge related to accounting and has long been at the forefront of research and teaching in the field.
Our PhD programme provides rigorous academic training aimed at preparing students to undertake research of the highest international standards. Our students benefit from a truly international and interdisciplinary environment.
• They have access to a wide range of taught courses and research seminars across different departments within the School.
• They work closely with faculty in the department throughout the programme, and interact with leading scholars from other universities thanks to our active external workshop series.
• All students admitted to the programme are normally fully funded, and financial assistance is also available for students to present their work at conferences.
• Students further benefit from the privileged location of the School.
London is a vibrant, multicultural city, and the LSE campus, situated in central London, is only a stone’s throw away from the financial district, but also Westminster, the political heart of the UK.
Students are expected to complete the programme within five years. In the first two years, they take a set of core and elective courses in accounting and related fields and complete a research paper. After the second year, students focus on their PhD thesis.
We process applications on a rolling basis. While we will consider applications received after that date, we strongly encourage students to apply by 25 January.
For any queries about the programme, please email r.j.baker@lse.ac.uk.
