About this degree

They are encouraged to apply their understanding of methodology to critique existing research, design their own research, carry out their own analysis and communicate clearly with academic specialists and non-specialists. All students gain hands-on experience in a range of methodologies used to study issues of interest in the real world.
The programme is available full-time (one year), part-time (two years) or via flexible/modular study (taking a maximum of five years to complete).
