Overview
The Master of Research in Education at University of Bath is a faculty-wide, cross-disciplinary research training course with an education strand. It provides high-quality training to potential doctoral students as well as a stand-alone qualification for social science researchers.
Depending on your research interests you will be placed in a research group within the Department of Education, which will have seminar and reading group activities that you can join.
You will also spend a short period of time shadowing an experienced researcher.
The course aims to:
- teach you to systematically review alternative approaches, methodologies and paradigms of research in social and educational enquiry
- enable you to critically evaluate the application of these approaches in the specific areas of social and educational enquiry in which you specialise
- support you within an active research community, in identifying and investigating your own original research questions
