Course overview Be part of an interdisciplinary network of sexuality and gender studies researchers. Our MRes lets you take taught modules alongside pursuing your own research. Develop the skills for both doctoral study and a future career. You'll broaden your knowledge through taught modules to become a confident independent researcher and you’ll complete a major individual research project supervised by a specialist in the field. Course highlights At Birmingham, we offer a genuinely interdisciplinary programme where you'll explore the fields of Sexuality and Gender Studies together and deepen your knowledge in both areas. Our Sexuality and Gender Studies network brings together academics working across disciplines. We'll encourage you to think about representations of gender and sexuality in a range of subject areas and academic fields. You'll cover various theories, gaining a solid grounding in current and historical views of gender and sexuality studies. These include feminist theory, masculinity studies, queer theory, postcolonial theory, transgender studies, ethnography, sexology, and criminology.
