Objectives On completion of this subject it is expected that students should have learnt how to undertake independent research of a significant problem in development studies, and to construct a logically presented, documented argument exploring this problem.

Synopsis A research project of 9000 words, fulfilling one-quarter of the year's requirements (12 points) may be undertaken in part II of the MA in development studies. The research topic must be determined in consultation with the director of the centre, Dr Susan Blackburn, and with a lecturer who is prepared to supervise it. It is the student's responsibility to initiate this consultation well before the start of the semester.
