This module will provide students with the background knowledge and skills needed for the successful completion of a piece of empirical research in the field of Humanities and Social Sciences. Students will learn about the requirements of research at masters level, from learning to read critically, to choosing and selecting literature from the field, to narrowing down a topic area and designing their methodology, to writing a research proposal. Students will be assessed by coursework only, consisting of a research proposal, a draft chapter, an annotated bibliography and a reflective task. Students will be provided with regular formative feedback on their written work and also on their research design and general interaction with the research process.
