Course content
The programme has an authentic approach to learning activities and assessments. Real-world scenarios are embedded across the programme.
This programme has a competitive edge over other taught MSc programmes that focus on research methods, as it has a strong focus on the long-term strategic process of how a problem is addressed in practice, i.e., developing and shifting focus from understanding a problem right through to designing solutions, and then implementing and evaluating them. The programme embeds core themes of impact, working in partnerships, co-production, co-design, and implementation. These themes run through all the modules on the programme.
The programme takes a practical and applied approach and will equip you with the relevant transferable academic skills, professional/practical skills and knowledge to practice in a manner that informs your ability to plan, prepare and produce high quality, impactful and authentic outputs.
