Research into health and healthcare is essential for:
Our course will equip you with knowledge and skills needed for evidence-based health and healthcare research. You will be based within the Department of Population Health Sciences which has an international reputation for innovative research in public health, biostatistics, epidemiology and healthcare improvement.
You will learn from globally leading researchers actively involved in tackling current health challenges and develop as an effective change agent for current and future health policies and clinical practices.
Our teaching portfolio is informed by the Department’s world-leading research, which means that the curriculum and all your course materials will be based on the latest insights and understanding into current health and healthcare challenges.
You will receive a comprehensive grounding in both quantitate and qualitative research methods, while developing key transferable, highly in-demand skills in research practice, critical appraisal, academic writing for grant proposals and peer-reviewed journals, group and independent working, public and patient engagement, communication and presentation of research, and research management, policy, governance and ethics.
We offer different options for your study: the Masters in Research (MRes) can be taken full-time over one year or part-time over two years. You also have the option for a Postgraduate Certificate, which includes the modules but not the dissertation, which is available part-time over one year.
