CAN I DO PAID WORK IN OXFORD DURING MY DPHIL?
Yes, but we recommend that you do no more than 12 hours/week because of the intensity of the DPhil programmes. The Oxford Careers Service provides advice and advertises opportunities for part-time work suitable for Oxford Students.
Some students take on teaching in their area of interest through their college. This can provide a good opportunity for work which can fit well around a DPhil and improve your career prospects. There are sometimes other opportunities for part-time work available in colleges, but this will vary from college to college, as will opportunities to take on teaching.
The University provides further information on paid work guidelines for graduate students.
