MRes Programmes (Master of Research)

We provide a focused introduction to postgraduate research allowing you to develop as an independent researcher with the support of an expert in your field of choice.

Courses

Our MRes programmes provide a rigorous overview of the current state of scholarship in your selected field, guides you, through a programme of directed, individualised reading, to the selection of a feasible research project, and allows you to complete a substantial piece of research. We offer three named MRes programmes:

• Modern Languages and Cultures MRes
• Latin American Studies MRes
• Film Studies MRes

All three programmes share the same module structure.The difference lies in the topic of the research project developed by each student. Find out more about these MRes programmes on the course page for the Modern Languages and Cultures MRes.
