School of Communication, Business & Law MA by Research

To qualify for the award of a Master’s degree by research a candidate must meet the required learning outcomes and satisfy the examiners that his/her achievement is of sufficient merit through:

(a) presenting a thesis - written in English - (30,000 words maximum) on the subject of his/her research which interprets and communicates knowledge in their discipline and contains material at a level suitable for publication in accordance with the requirements of the relevant prescribed programme of study, and

(b) presenting him/herself for oral examination and other such tests as the examiners may prescribe.

At least three months before the submission of the thesis you must enter for examination by completing the University of Leeds Examination Entry Form and giving it to your supervisor. You are advised to start thinking about the Examination Entry Form and discuss examination arrangements with your supervisor well in advance of this deadline, as it may take time to find suitable examiners who are available to examine your thesis.
