Overview
Research programmes involve writing a thesis on a particular topic with specialist supervision. Students are given research training, which is tailored to the particular needs of fheir research and takes into account any training they have previously received. Students also have opportunities to attend modules on relevant subjects on a non-assessed basis to fill any gaps in their background.
The curriculum will be in the general area of medicine and health science research and may range from looking at mechanisms of disease or methodology, clinical research, or healthcare economics. Candidates will be required, in consultation with their supervisors, to undertake appropriate background reading; to undertake such research training as the supervisor and the Social Sciences Faculty require and to put such training into practice; to carry out a substantial body of original research, and to provide a written account of the research including its context within the current body of knowledge.
