Overview

Program Description This course aims to prepare students for a research career and equip them with the necessary skills for further postgraduate study such as a PhD. The social policy pathway aims to bring together a core training in research methods within the specific disciplinary field of social policy. Students will take four social research methods modules which meet the requirements of the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC). These core modules will be taken by students across different disciplinary pathways. Teesside encourages students to apply their pathway knowledge throughout these modules. Students will also study two social policy modules. This will allow students to balance the necessary research methods training requirements with specific disciplinary knowledge. In order to successfully complete the master's programme students will conduct and complete their own research project of their own choice which should have a social policy focus. This course is suitable for students if they are looking to improve or develop their ability to research and evaluate policy and practice ethically and professionally, and if students are wishing to conduct research in an academic setting or pursue a career as a social researcher. The programme draws heavily on learning strategies which encourage and promote independent learning and critical thinking. Taught sessions will be delivered as workshop-style classes which place emphasis on group and individual activities. The programme is designed to continually address the connections between theory and research practice.
