Research in Education is 30 credits over 5 days ending with a group presentation. At the end of the summer you will submit a research proposal for your dissertation project.

Research in Education is a mixture of interactive lectures and seminars where you can unpick the detail with experts, ask questions, and understand research into teaching and learning in relation to specific papers you've read and topics you might be interested in looking at.

A one-year project culminating in a 7500-word dissertation worth 60 credits.

Along the way we’ll offer the support you need in terms of reading and writing the pros and cons of different research designs or data collection methods and analysis tools.

We’ll check in regularly to: 

• Decide on a topic
• Discuss the literature
• Refine a research question
• Plan data collection/analysis
• Secure ethical approval
• Discuss what you’ve found
