The two taught modules on this course aim to provide you with postgraduate-level research methodologies and skills, as well as highlighting contemporary debates on 'gender' as a broadly defined field. With expert guidance, for the third module you will produce a 28,000-word dissertation on a gender-related topic.The University of Chesters Institute of Gender Studies is an exciting research hub for students and staff, and regular seminars also involve the wider community, as well as international speakers. While studying for an MRes in Gender Studies, you will be working with leading researchers who have taught and published extensively in the field.Our course will encourage you to develop an interdisciplinary and intersectional approach to your studies, finding connections between, for example, English, Sociology, Media Studies, or Religious Studies.The extended dissertation will allow contact time to be largely directed by you, as you explore in depth a topic of particular interest to you.
You need a 2:1 honour degree in any relevant discipline or an equivalent qualification is required. Credit exemption may be given for appropriate certificated or experiential learning undertaken or completed within the previous five years. Consideration may be given to those who hold a lower classification who can demonstrate they can perform at the level required to complete the course successfully. Admission to the MRes course is by written application and interview.
