The journey so far

Tell us about yourself!

I am a 4^th year DPhil in Psychiatry student at Linacre College. I was raised in Sandy, a small town north of London, and attained my first degree in Psychology at King’s College London. I’m biracial, my father was born and raised in Jamaica and my mother is British, and I was one of the first scholars on the Black Academic Futures scholarship.

What are postgraduate research examination outcomes?

Postgraduate research examination outcomes refer to the possible results following examination for a postgraduate award, such as a DPhil, or MLitt/MSc(Res). There are several options for examiners to recommend and some can involve further work for the student before an award is made. For example, minor corrections, major corrections, or reference back.
