The Master of Research (MRes) in Social Sciences and Humanities is a flexible, interdisciplinary postgraduate programme designed to provide you with advanced theoretical, methodological, and practical research training and prepare you for continuing into a PhD or for a future career as a researcher in a workplace. The program covers introductory and advanced topics in research methodology and designs, both qualitative and quantitative, and a good grounding in non-primary research design such as systematic review methodology and secondary data research. You will also conduct an independent piece of research as part of a 30,000 words dissertation, where you will put into practice the methods and theoretical concepts you have been taught. While an MRes is a research-oriented degree aimed at training independent researchers, it is important to offer you a more discipline-specific experience. For that, this program offers you two options for obtaining a full degree.
Have been awarded an undergraduate bachelors honors degree in a cognate field at 2:2 or equivalent, or have acquired subject expertise and qualified experience through professional employment that enables the candidate to study successfully at masters level.
