Course summary
The MSc Applied Research allows you to design your postgraduate study to meet your research and career aspirations.There is a programme of core modules but around that you can choose from a varied selection of modules or design your own bespoke study. Through a programme of flexible blended learning, you can undertake your studies in a variety of academic areas. As well as becoming an expert in a chosen area, the course provides a unique opportunity to learn from others researching in different subject areas, using different methodologies and presenting in different formats.The uniqueness of this course is that you can negotiate the exact content of your programme of study across a diverse range of disciplines. In collaboration with us you will develop a learning contract, and this will specify the exact title of the award that you will receive at the end of the course to reflect choices and specialisms, so for example it could be relatively broad such as Applied Research (Physical Geography or Applied Research (Genomics) or quite specific such as Applied Research (Metabolic Disease).This course has three main strands research training, subject development and research project. It will develop your skills in a range of techniques and research methods applicable to your subject area and in addition will allow consideration of the full ethical and methodological perspectives used within a range of academic areas. You will also develop skills to disseminate your work in formats appropriate to subject and professional expectations.The Independent Major Project ensures a journey from research design to dissemination to a wider audience at a post-graduate level. Support for the project will be given in the core modules (Creative Research Skills: Tools and Techniques, Research Design and Application and Independent Major Project). This support will consist of lectures, workshops, online tasks and tutorials to develop research skills and support you to plan, conduct and disseminate your own major piece of research.CareersAfter completing the Applied Research Masters, you’ll be equipped to work in research roles.
