This compulsory module will be delivered in Year 2 of the Dental Public Health, Policy and Leadership distance-learning postgraduate Diploma and MSc courses. It will start by giving students the theoretical basis for research. They will then journey through the stages of planning a research project including setting research questions, designing a study and acquiring ethical approval. The nine weeks of teaching will culminate in students submitting a research protocol and defending this in an oral presentation as a summative assessment.
