Course Overview

What you'll study?

Choosing your route
The MSc emphasizes a taught focus across a range of methods and will be suitable for students keen to develop a broad profile of independent research skills.

The MRes places a greater emphasis on independent study and is suitable for students who are already engaged in psychological research and wish to focus on a particular area.

The innovative course structure means you don't need to decide which award you want to focus on until the end of Term One.
