Hi, every1,
Hope all's good!
I am at present an MSc student of Miwifery, but I am not sure if U HAVE to do an Mphil before going ahed with a PhD degree in Midwifery. Can any1 please help me out? I am really confused! I thought Mphil and PhD were two different courses. But some friends have really confused me. I want to do a PhD in MIDWIFERY, does that mean I will have to do Mphil in Midwifery before that?
I hope any1 can help me out? I am desperate to know!!
I will be very much thankful to you!!! Loadza thanks in advance :)
Take cares,
Wishing you all the very best with your careeer's and lives!
Cheers !!

The MPhil and PhD are two different qualifications. However, many universities do not register research students for PhDs at first. Initially students are registered for MPhils and then, if progress is considered to be satisfactory, are upgraded to PhD status at a later date, usually one to two years in. In this way it is not necessary to complete an MPhil before starting a PhD, but you may have to initially register as an MPhil student and pass an upgrade to progress to a PhD.

SpOgmay,
Have a look at Southampton. They have a very good Clinical Doctorate and you do not need a masters for it. Good luck
