Postgraduate taught: Master of Research (MRes) programmes
What is an MRes programme?
Master of Research (MRes) programmes:
- Bridge the gap between undergraduate studies and learning what is required of a professional researcher
- Have an intensive taught core component in which students learn the subject from the researchers and then spend two-thirds of the time working on two or three full-time research projects
- Are designed to give students a real taster of research and equip them with the skills needed for their future career
