This module is one of the two possible core modules in the MA in applied Linguistics for English Language Teaching. With your supervisor's guidance, you will select a topic for advanced study. You will have the opportunity to demonstrate your ability to justify the topic, to synthesise knowledge from the modules you have studied during the programme, to narrow your topic to research questions following a close reading of literature, to design and implement a research plan, to collect quantitative and/or qualitative data and to analyse and interpret this data in order to answer your research questions. You will also be able to demonstrate your ability to structure an extended piece of written work, and to construct an argument which supports your conclusions. Your dissertation will be 10,000 to 12,000 words, and you will be supported by guidance from your supervisor on a one-to-one basis.
