PhD
The PhD by Publication is a Doctorate degree, much like a conventional PhD, but which recognises research work carried out by entrepreneurial companies and academic organisations that lead to novel and publishable results. The PhD is offered by Bolton University in cooperation with the University of New York in Prague.
Usually this requires a minimum of three-years. The key point is that during this time, there should be three publications, in literature approved by Bolton University. These publications should be in relation to the student's thesis and area of expertise, and should develop knowledge of the subject. The award of this PhD is based purely on these three published works, and as such rewards on-going activities, rather than additional work.
It is different from any other PhD variation, including PhD by Published Works because it is based on works to be published. Publications include papers in high impact factor journals or full international patents. This makes it incredibly versatile, as it opens the door to all aspects of enterprise, from business and science, through to the arts.
Students on the program will have to submit a thesis in English, and provide an oral defense of the new knowledge (philosophy) generated.
Class sizes at UNYP are kept small, which allows students’ far greater personal attention and greater access to their professors. We also adopt the American style of teaching, which is interactive, and encourages individual participation. This creates a personalized approach to students and creates an ideal environment for effective teaching and information exchange.
UNYP is fully accredited by the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport of the Czech Republic. Furthermore, the British Accreditation Council for Independent Further and Higher Education accredits UNYP as an institution providing higher education. In addition UNYP is a member of CAMBAS, the Czech Association of MBA Schools.
