Scope and Content

The doctorate of science was the senior postgraduate science degree from the 1900s to the 1930s. Although the Ph.D. was introduced at Manchester in 1918, for many years, more D.Scs were awarded than Ph.Ds. Unlike the Ph.D, the D.Sc. was not awarded for a single piece of original research, but for published and unpublished scientific papers written by he candidate. Therefore, applicants tended to be young or mid-career academics or researchers. The majority of applicants were Manchester graduates. Examiners' reports are present for pre-1945 applications for the Manchester D.Sc.. The files typically include correspondence with individual examiners (there were usually three) and the examiner's reports. The files include details of the papers which were submitted in support of the degree, but not the actual papers themselves. FSC/2 contains the minutes of the Committee which approved the award of the degree.
