Program Outline
Degree Overview:
The Master of Philosophy (MPhil) in Accounting at Aberystwyth University is an advanced research-based postgraduate qualification, where you research and write a thesis over 2 years. Members of staff are always happy to discuss possible PhD and MPhil research programmes in Accounting with suitably qualified graduates.

Other:
Similar to a PhD, you will have the opportunity to pursue an area of interest under the guidance of a supervisor, and you will still be required to defend your thesis in a viva voce exam; however, an MPhil involves conducting less in-depth analysis than a PhD does.
