Course Overview

In the last decade, there has been enormous growth in social research, leading to an increasing variety of career options. There are a number of different research environments, such as academic departments, third-sector organisations, private research organisations and governmental agencies – all of which have distinctive research cultures.

There is an increasing emphasis on the production of high-quality, rigorous and meaningful research by professionally trained researchers. We designed the MA in Social Research to provide such training, and the course will interest people pursuing, or enhancing, a research-related career in a wide range of settings.
