Module Aims
This module aims to enable students to demonstrate the skills necessary to produce a scholarly, in-depth, empirical research study, resource, or report.
Content Summary
The student, under the guidance of the project supervisor(s), will pro-actively determine the content of the module. This will normally include finalising an appropriate research question and implementing a research design appropriate to their area of enquiry. Students will undertake the proposed programme of research whilst maintaining regular contact with their supervisor. A minimum of 15 hours of contact with the supervisor is recommended. This may be supported by regular phone, skype or email, but preferably face-to-face contact. The workshops will be delivered whilst on a residential week.
