MSc
Summary
This programme draws on the range of expertise available within the Department, as well as related academic departments, in order to provide advanced training in social research methodologies, combined with the opportunity to focus on a substantive social science area.
The MSc programme will provide you with the opportunity to develop sophistication in research design and quantitative and qualitative research, and to undertake courses in one or more social science disciplines. You will acquire skills of ‘practical scholarship’ and the ability to design, conduct, analyse and report a social research project. The MSc Social Research Methods also offers more specialised streams in Population and Gender.
The syllabus for the MSc goes some way beyond the ESRC's requirements for the first year of a 1+3 PhD programme, and it is designed as training for doctoral research and as pre-professional training for careers in social research in the public and private sectors.
The MSc Social Research Methods (Gender) is offered as a 1+3 PhD programme, in conjunction with the MPhil/PhD Gender.
The MSc Social Research Methods (Social/Formal) is offered as a 1+3 PhD programme, in conjunction with the MPhil/PhD Demography (Social/Formal).
