MPhil - Master of Philosophy
Health Studies
Research
Our MPhil in Health and Organisational Research offers you a unique opportunity to undertake research in a variety of health and organisational contexts. You may be interested in health service development or in the physical or psychological well-being of staff within a specific organisation but whatever your specific research interests we are likely to have a supervisor with the experience to support you in this process. You will be offered opportunities to access our master’s level research methods modules to provide a sound foundation of specific research knowledge and skills. In addition, you will have access to the University’s Proficio research training scheme which allows you to choose training programmes that meet the requirements of your own research topics and methodologies.
This MPhil is offered on a 2 year full-time or 4-year part-time basis, plus up to one year of completion. Some people choose to do an MPhil before applying to undertake a PhD to develop their research skills and knowledge and to demonstrate their self-discipline and time management skills to potential supervisors or funders.
