Our MPhil in Speech and Language Therapy offers you a unique opportunity to undertake research in a variety of health and organisational contexts. Whatever your specific research interests we are likely to have a supervisor with the experience to support you in this process. You will be offered opportunities to access our master’s level research methods modules to provide a sound foundation of specific research knowledge and skills. In addition, you will have access to the University’s Proficio research training scheme which allows you to choose training programmes that meet the requirements of your own research topics and methodologies.
This MPhil is offered on a 2 year full-time or 4-year part-time basis, plus up to one year of completion. Some people choose to do an MPhil before applying to undertake a PhD to develop their research skills and knowledge and to demonstrate their self-discipline and time management skills to potential supervisors or funders.
Assessment
Within our School of Health and Social Care, the length of time taken to complete your research degree is dependent upon the programme on which you are registered.
We offer several different research degrees meaning that your yearly timetable is agreed on an individual basis with your supervisor at the start of your programme of study.
Your future
We currently have graduates working in both clinical and management positions in local trusts, hospitals, and care organisations, as well as in local and county councils.
You will need a masters degree, or equivalent, in a relevant discipline such as a health science or a social science. Alternatively you will need to evidence advanced research skills developed through an alternative route. A well developed research proposal is also essential.
