Preamble
1 a Candidates for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy are
required to pursue an approved programme of advanced study and research under
supervision as enrolled students of the University. The demands of PhD research
require a significant commitment by candidates in terms of time and resources,
and candidates are normally expected to be working full-time on their doctoral
research.
b It is expected that this programme will usually be
completed within three to four years of full-time candidature. Part-time
candidature may also be permitted.
c Upon completion of an approved programme of
research:
(i) a candidate must submit a thesis that meets the
requirements set out in Clause 1e
or
(ii) in the case of a candidate enrolled in a creative arts or
design discipline, upon recommendation of the Academic Head and approval from
the Board of Graduate Studies, the candidate may present a corpus of creative
work for assessment with a written thesis, comprising an integrated whole, that
meets the requirements set out in Clause 1e.
d In order for the PhD degree to be awarded, the
candidate must satisfy the examiners in an oral examination and any other
relevant examination that may be required on the subject of the thesis and on
relevant matters in the field or fields to which the subject belongs.
e The PhD degree is awarded for a formal and systematic
exposition of a coherent programme of advanced research work. The work is
carried out over the period of enrolment for the degree and, in the opinion of
the examiners and the Board of Graduate Studies, satisfies all of the following
criteria:
(i) is an original contribution to knowledge or understanding
in its field
and
(ii) meets internationally recognised standards for such
work
and
(iii) demonstrates knowledge of the literature relevant to the
subject and the field or fields to which the subject belongs, and the ability to
exercise critical and analytical judgement of it
and
(iv) is satisfactory in its methodology, in the quality and
coherence of its expression, and in its scholarly presentation and format.
f PhD theses may not, without the prior permission of
the Board of Graduate Studies, exceed 100,000 words in total, or 60,000 words in
total when accompanied by a corpus of creative work by a candidate enrolled in a
creative arts or design discipline.
g If the core of the thesis comprises a series of
published or unpublished research papers and/or case studies, the candidate must
be the lead or sole author of each paper or case study and have written the
text, and must provide a contextual framework and concluding discussion that
will normally amount to 20,000–30,000 words. The range and focus of this
material shall generally correspond with the introductory and concluding
chapters of a thesis. The thesis must be presented in a consistent format,
citation style and typeface.
h If the core of the thesis does not comprise a series
of published or unpublished research papers and/or case studies, a candidate may
still include within their thesis published or unpublished research papers
and/or case studies, provided that the candidate was the lead or sole author of
each paper or case study and wrote the text. The thesis must be presented in a
consistent format, citation style and typeface.
i In the case of published or unpublished research
papers and/or case studies that the candidate has contributed to but is not the
sole or lead author of, the candidate may report in the thesis their
contribution to the research with due reference to the original paper and/or
case study. The thesis must be presented in a consistent format, citation style
and typeface.
j All material which is not the original work of the
author of the thesis must:
(i) be fully and appropriately attributed
or
(ii) if a substantial part of another work, be reproduced only
with the written permission of the copyright owner of that other work.
k All research for the thesis is to be conducted in
accordance with The University of Auckland Code of Conduct for Research.
Eligibility
2 Candidates for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy are
required to have:
a (i) completed the requirements for the award of a masters
degree with First Class or Second Class (Division I) Honours at The University
of Auckland
or
(ii) completed the requirements for the award of a bachelors
degree with First Class or Second Class (Division I) Honours at The University
of Auckland
or
(iii) completed all the taught coursework requirements (if
any) for a masters degree of The University of Auckland at the equivalent of
First Class or Second Class (Division I) Honours level, and have made
substantial progress towards completion of the masters research thesis
or
(iv) completed the requirements for the award of a
qualification that the Board of Graduate Studies considers to be equivalent to a
masters degree with First Class or Second Class (Division I) Honours or a
bachelors degree with First Class or Second Class (Division I) Honours from The
University of Auckland
and
b demonstrated an ability to pursue doctoral-level
research
and
c if presenting a corpus of creative work for assessment, have
demonstrated advanced training or experience in a relevant creative practice,
and, in their provisional year, have identified their intention to present a
corpus of creative work for final assessment and have received the approval of
the Board of Graduate Studies.
d In exceptional circumstances, the Board of Graduate
Studies may consider for registration a person whose qualifications do not meet
the requirements of Clause 2a, if it is satisfied that the person’s experience
in research and the results of that experience are so outstanding that the
person is likely to have the ability to complete the degree successfully.
Admission
3 Admission Essential
Every candidate for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy
must have applied for admission and been admitted to The University of
Auckland.
Registration
4 a Registration Essential
Every candidate for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy
must be registered by the Board of Graduate Studies.
b Provisional Registration
Registration is provisional for all candidates for the
first 12 months of equivalent full-time study following the Date of Registration
as defined in Clause 4j of this Statute.
c Application for Registration
Application for registration must be made to the Head of
Department, Division, School, Chair of a Board of Studies or Director of the
Research Centre or Institute (“the Head of Department”) in the discipline in
which the candidate is to be primarily registered.
d Part-time Registration
Candidates with compelling reasons may be permitted to
register as part-time students if the Board of Graduate Studies expects that the
candidate will be able to complete the PhD within the permitted time frame. A
candidate must normally submit the thesis in no fewer than six and no more than
eight years if they have been registered as a part-time student for the whole
period of their registration.
e Non-resident Candidature
Where an intending candidate is not resident in Auckland,
the Head of Department must provide the Board of Graduate Studies with evidence
that the candidate will be provided with research resources and supervisory
support at the location in which the research is to be carried out.
f Concurrent Registration
In exceptional cases a candidate may be permitted to
enrol concurrently in a second degree in order to complete that degree, provided
it is not the qualifying degree for entry into the PhD programme.
g Role of the Head of Department
The Head of Department will make a recommendation to the
Faculty Associate Dean (Postgraduate) as to:
(i) whether the candidate:
(a) meets the eligibility requirements
and
(b) has a preliminary thesis proposal capable of meeting the
requirements of Clause 1e of this Statute
and
(c) has an appropriate set of goals for the provisional year
of registration, agreed to by both the candidate and main supervisor
and
if the Head of Department is of that opinion, then they will
recommend:
(ii) whether their department (in conjunction with any other
department where the field of study is interdisciplinary, or other university in
the case of jointly awarded degrees) accepts the responsibility for:
(a) making satisfactory supervision arrangements over the
whole course of the PhD
and
(b) providing adequate research resources and facilities
and
if the Head of Department is of that opinion, then they will
nominate:
(iii) which other departments will be involved if the field of
study is interdisciplinary. In these cases, the Heads of any other departments
involved are required to endorse the recommendation
and
(iv) suitably qualified supervisors and, where appropriate,
advisers
and
(v) in the case of a candidate in a department of languages
and literatures, or a candidate for whom joint registration with another
university in a non-English speaking country is proposed, the language in which
the thesis is to be submitted and examined.
h Role of the Associate Dean (Postgraduate)
On receipt of the recommendation of the Head of
Department, the Faculty Associate Dean (Postgraduate) will make a recommendation
to the Board of Graduate Studies as to the matters set out in Clause 4g.
i Role of the Board of Graduate Studies
On receipt of the recommendation of the Faculty Associate
Dean (Postgraduate), the Board of Graduate Studies will decide whether or not to
register the candidate and, if so, the conditions which will apply to the
registration. The Board of Graduate Studies may call for any further information
it considers relevant before making its decision.
