With the MA by Research (MAR), you'll undertake independent original research that offers comprehensive insight into your selected field. You'll receive guidance from a team of academic supervisors, all experts in their disciplines, participate in research training workshops, and maintain regular contact with your advisors. The MAR serves as excellent preparation for PhD studies, as it focuses solely on research without formal coursework. As a top UK institution for language and cultural studies, we provide diverse MA by Research options.
