Summary
Start dates: 1st October, 1st January, 1st April & 1st July.
An MA by Research in International Development at Swansea enables you to undertake a substantial research project led by your own passions and interests.
It represents a highly respected qualification which can present a pathway to a career in academia or widen your scope for employment in fields such as education, government or the private sector.
Your project will take one year full-time or two years part-time. It is suitable if you want to undertake a first research degree as an isolated culmination of taught studies, or if you are considering further research.
You will submit a thesis of up to 40,000 words, demonstrating original research with a significant contribution to the subject. This is followed by an oral examination of the thesis (a viva voce examination, or viva).
A dynamic research environment is promoted through our research groups by committed staff who are all active researchers with a diverse range of interests and expertise. These groups include:
Global Drug Policy Observatory (GDPO) International Studies, Conflict and Security (ISCAS) Political Analysis and Government (PAG)
