Approximate Costs

The approximate costs of studying for a PhD in this department are as follows. Tuition fees £16,670 per year (2009/10 rate); bench fees (to cover your lab consumables) from £0 to £10,000 per year depending on the nature of your project; living costs of minimum £9,600 per year for a single student.

Students intending to fund their own studies should consider the full costs of doing so, as unfortunately the College is unable to support partly-funded students or those whose funding runs out prior to completing the course.
