Master of Arts by research and coursework

Course code: 0017

The MA by coursework and thesis is designed to give all MA candidates an introduction to and experience in modern research methods, to give candidates proceeding to the PhD a broader background in their chosen subject and to offer those for whom the MA is the final goal an opportunity to extend their professional knowledge. Students pursue a supervised course of reading in their chosen options, and will be required to write a number of essays. They will be asked to prepare for and actively participate in regular seminars conducted by specialists, and in part II of the MA will write a thesis on a topic connected with one of the options selected.
