nrPhD courses?

I have seen a couple of new route PhD courses that combine the one-year Masters course with the PhD... it seems like a good idea but I have hardly found any information on it.

Does anybody know ANYTHING about it? Pros/cons. I understand that very few universities do it.

If I do find a nrPhD course I want to do should I go for it, or do Masters seperately? :s-smilie:
Most PhD programs funded by charities or the research councils are 4 year courses which include a year's masters course.

New route PhDs are being introduced by colleges that fund their own PhD programs because their programs are only 3 years at the moment plus a year to write up but have no masters attached.
