Description
Students undertake an independent research project under the supervision of a faculty member. The aim of the MRes Research Project is for students to design and carry out a substantial piece of original research on a topic that is interesting for them. The specific project will be jointly decided by the students and their supervisor.
The research project will result in a thesis of 8,000-10,000 words. As an invaluable practice and preparation for submitting research manuscript for publication, students are required to submit the thesis in the form of a manuscript or an extended proposal submitted to a prestigious journal or a conference.
This is a heavily-weighted module, which reflects the importance of the research project within the overall MRes programme.
