Course summary

Within our multidisciplinary School of Sport, Rehabilitation and Exercise Sciences, we offer research supervision in all areas of staff expertise in sports therapy and related areas.

As a research student at Essex, you’ll work at the heart of our internationally acknowledged and well-connected research community. Our School of Sport, Rehabilitation and Exercise Sciences offers an environment with an excellent reputation for research and teaching. A unique feature of our School is that many of our staff work with local National Health Service (NHS) Trusts and other local health agencies, which enhances our grasp of the contemporary links between academic research, the major issues of the day and practice.

We also offer a PhD and an MPhil in this subject. Both full- and part-time study can be supported.

Assessment

The aim of undertaking your MSD is to train as an independent researcher who can critically assess other research work and have a comprehensive knowledge of at least one area.

Our MSD programme is one-years' duration full time, and two years part time.

Your future

Our graduates go on to a range of careers. Some work in biomedical laboratories and in the biotechnology industry, both in research and development, and in sales. Other careers include work with governmental and non-governmental environmental agencies and organisations or teaching in schools and colleges.
