MSc (Research) in Nursing and MSc (Research) in Midwifery

The MSc (Research) in Nursing and MSc (Research) in Midwifery provide students with rigorous research training and an opportunity to complete an independent research study, presented as a major thesis. The programme enables students to develop their research knowledge and skills whilst completing a major research study under the guidance of academic supervisors. During the MSc (Research), the student will pursue a course of supervised research and a programme which enables them to develop their knowledge of a research topic area, research methods, literature searching, presentation, and publishing skills. The student will submit a thesis outlining the work completed during their studies. This thesis will be assessed by both an internal and an external examiner.

Students can study for an MSc (Research) on either a full-time basis over 1 year (equivalent to 40 hours of research work per week) or on a part-time basis over 2 years (equivalent to 20 hours of research work per week).
