Master of Research - MRes
Summary
The MRes Applied Clinical Research programme has been designed to serve healthcare professionals working in fields such as nursing, audiology, midwifery, physiotherapy, psychology and radiology, and medical sciences graduates wanting to embark on a Masters of Research degree focusing on human health and disease.
- This programme equips graduates with the skills and subject-specific knowledge needed to pursue a research-based career in clinical medicine and healthcare.
- It focuses on clinical research (e.g. audits, clinical outcome measures, quality improvement, qualitative or quantitative), and provides ideal training for students who want to enhance their careers within the NHS and health sector, or subsequently wish to move onto a PhD programme, or who simply wish to undertake a significant research (120 credits) project at Masters level.
- Completion of the course will lead to a professionally recognised qualification, being externally approved by the Institute of Biomedical Science (IBMS).
Key Course Features
- Teaching will involve a range of learning methods including lectures, seminars, laboratory practicals, group discussions and presentations.
- Taught modules to develop your understanding of the principles and application of research relevant to your discipline followed by a research project.
- The academic and clinical staff are research active, and continually thrive to promote research within areas of biomedical and clinical sciences, where they regularly publish their research findings and discuss their work at national and international conferences.
- Blended learning is a feature of this course, enabling students to travel for the taught element of the course without having to commit to living in Wrexham or the locality full time. Each module takes the form of a learning package consisting of a three-day block of face-to-face teaching supported by online learning.
- This approach is favoured by employers wishing to release their employees to study whilst still meeting service needs.
- The programme is designed to enhance the employability of individuals in the development of contemporary subject knowledge, related transferable skills and, in turn, better meet the clinical and healthcare needs of the populations they serve.
