Course Summary
The School of Psychology has a thriving research community, with a strong tradition of theoretical and applied research. Our research integrates cross-disciplinary expertise from experimental, developmental, health, clinical and social psychology. Current research is grouped into six clusters: cognition and neuroscience, developmental psychology, drugs and addictive behaviours, health promotion and behaviour, psychology and social change, and the psychology of education.
Your Research Proposal
Research proposals give us a better understanding of the area you want to study for an MPhil, PhD via MPhil or PhD Direct course.
You don’t have to follow a predetermined structure when writing your proposal, but it’s a good idea to include a title that describes the aims and scope of your research, and information on how your ideas fit in with the research interests of UEL.
Other important elements include: relevant academic literature, how your research will advance knowledge in this area, and a possible methodology. You should also include a timescale for your research.
Applicants should have either a first class or upper second class honours degree from a UK Higher Education Institution, or an overseas qualification rated as equivalent.
