Welcome from the Dean of the Graduate School

I am pleased that you are considering undertaking postgraduate study at Royal Holloway, University of London. We are proud of our Graduate School which now numbers some one thousand students, some on taught courses and others carrying out research programmes. Our postgraduates are drawn from many countries and are studying a wide range of subjects. At Royal Holloway we believe that we are able to offer postgraduates the ideal combination of access to the rich intellectual resources of London and, at the same time, a pleasant environment in which to live and work.

Our Graduate School is an academic community which prides itself on an outstanding reputation for teaching and research. All postgraduate students, as well as those involved in teaching and supporting postgraduates, are members of the Graduate School. We aim to help foster intellectual and social links between postgraduate students and researchers from different disciplines and to continually improve the postgraduate experience at Royal Holloway.

Any enquiries about Masters or PhD programmes should be sent directly to the contacts in the relevant department. All Admissions enquiries should be directed to the Admissions office (admissions@rhul.ac.uk). To request a Postgraduate Prospectus, please click here.

I look forward to meeting you soon.

Dr Gary Nichols
Dean of the Graduate School
