The MRes in Health and Social Care provides comprehensive training in research theory and methodologies essential for applied studies in modern healthcare and social service settings. This program caters to professionals aiming for research-focused roles within health and social care sectors. Many course modules overlap with our MSc and PhD offerings.

While primarily delivered through online learning, the program includes two mandatory four-day on-campus study sessions (introductory and winter schools), plus one mid-semester study day during each of the first two semesters.
