We have a thriving and friendly community of graduate students ranging from those pursuing research through the M.Phil or PhD to those on the PGCE and the part-time MEd and MSt degrees. A large proportion of our postgraduate body are from overseas, bringing students together from a wide range of cultures and backgrounds, as well as through a variety of subjects. This diversity will continue to grow with our expanding graduate community, enhancing and contributing to the intellectual life of the College.
Students who wish to take the PGCE courses offered by the Faculty of Education must apply via the Graduate Teacher Training Registry (GTTR) to the Faculty of Education. Information about how to do this can be found on the
GTTR website or the
Faculty of Education PGCE webpage. Homerton is very happy to be the college of choice for any PGCE student. Please go to
PGCE Admissions for further information.
All students who already have a degree and wish to apply to Homerton to study for a research degree such as a Ph.D, or for those graduate programmes with taught elements such as the M.Phil, must apply through the University's Board of Graduate Studies. See
