Research opportunities
The Department of International Studies and Social Science has considerable experience of supervising postgraduate students. We see our research expertise flowing directly into our MA courses and research degrees. We also take the time to make sure students receive the attention they need to succeed in their studies.
Those students who wish to complete a postgraduate qualification concentrating more on their own independent study, rather than participating fully in the taught programmes, can apply for MA by Research and MPhil/PhD study.
