Doctoral studies

One of the key ways CPICL advances its research mission is by supporting doctoral and masters research within its areas of expertise. Currently, nine Higher Degree by Research (HDR) candidates are conducting advanced research under the supervision of CPICL Fellows.

The Centre welcomes highly qualified candidates who wish to pursue research in fields such as constitutional law, administrative law, public and private international law, comparative law, legal philosophy, and law and economics.

HDR programs at The University of Queensland - the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) and the Master of Philosophy (MPhil) - are administered by the UQ Graduate School. Candidates are embedded within their academic schools and research centres, where they have access to resources, facilities, and expert supervision.

Find detailed information of the HDR program on our Higher Degree by Research page.
