Postgraduate Training
MSc in Research Methods
The programme entails undertaking core modules in both quantitative and qualitative research methodologies and for those studying to masters level there is the opportunity to carry out a small research project for the dissertation module. Individual modules can also be studied on a 'stand alone' basis for professional development. Study is part-time and although the Masters can be completed within one academic year students can take up to six years.
