Apply to Bath Create your prospectus Find out about our Postgraduate scholarships

Combine the study of key psychological theories with the in-depth advanced research methods and techniques needed to analyse data and provide valuable insights.

During this course, you’ll explore a range of key topics in psychology alongside quantitative and qualitative research methods and approaches.

This will allow you to gain the skills needed to progress your studies or become a researcher in the field of psychology.

You’ll enhance your understanding of the techniques used in the analysis of large-scale data and how to effectively present key insights and findings.

A central part of your studies will be the opportunity to design and conduct your own research project. This will focus on your preferred area of psychology, allowing you to tailor your degree towards your own ambitions and aspirations.

This course is designed to provide high-quality training to potential doctoral students, as well as essential research skills that are desirable in a number of private and public sector roles.

Gain key skills

Upon successful completion this course, you will have:

  • deep knowledge of a variety of research techniques for interpreting psychology challenges and the necessary statistical literacy to analyse quantitative and qualitative evidence
  • a rounded set of skills relevant to a range of research-based roles, including inter-disciplinary collaboration, awareness of complex ethical issues, and project and data management expertise
  • transferable skills suited to professional and academic environments, including critical thinking and analysis, and networking and presenting, and advanced bibliographic abilities

Why choose a Master of Research (MRes) degree?

An MRes is a master’s degree with a focus on research. The knowledge and expertise you’ll gain will prepare you for doctoral study and a range of non-academic careers that require strong research skills.

Find out more about why an MRes might be right for you.

South West Doctoral Training Partnership

This MRes is recognised by the Economic & Social Research Council (ESRC), specifically, as part of the larger South West Doctoral Training Partnership (SWDTP). It can be taken as a course in its own right, or if you hold an SWDTP studentship you can take the 1+3 (MRes + PhD) pathway.

If you wish to be considered for a 1+3 SWDTP studentship, then you must apply for your preferred PhD route and not the stand-alone MRes. You should follow our how to apply guidelines.

For those holding a 1+3 SWDTP studentship, progression from the MRes to the MPhil or PhD stage is dependent on an acceptable level of achievement.

Read more about other funding that you may be eligible for.

Learn from experts in their field

You’ll learn from experts in psychology research. Their passion, knowledge and research shape their teaching to enhance your learning experience.

Use specialist facilities

The Department of Psychology is based in its own dedicated building, containing some of our leading research centres and groups.

You can use this space for group meetings, personal tutor sessions and computer work. The building contains advanced psychology research facilities, including:

  • an electroencephalogram (EEG) scanner
  • virtual reality lab with motion sensor cameras
  • biopsychology suite with two-way mirror
  • eye-tracking equipment
  • sensory and pain research suite
  • cross modal laboratory

Graduate prospects

There is increasing demand for high-level quantitative and qualitative research skills from a wide range of private and public sector recruiters.

Many organisations and government departments are now committed to data-driven decision-making, making the ability to extract evidence-based insights important.

This course will equip you with a hybrid skill set that combines quantitative, computing and analytical skills with an understanding of psychological theory, and research and enquiry skills.

You’ll also develop practical skills needed for a wide range of research-based careers in psychology settings. These include project and data management, ethical decision-making, and effective collaboration across disciplines.

This MRes provides an excellent foundation for those who wish to progress to doctoral study and pursue an academic research career.

Learning and assessment

You’ll be taught and assessed by a variety of methods and it will vary between units. These methods are designed to promote in-depth learning and understanding of the subject.

Learning

  • Research project
  • Lectures
  • Seminars
  • Workshops

Assessment

  • Coursework
  • Dissertation
  • Examinations
  • Report
  • Visual or recorded presentation

These lists are to give you an idea of some, but not all, of the learning and assessment methods used on this course. They are not exhaustive lists and methods are subject to change.

Learning and teaching

You are expected to spend approximately 15 to 20 hours per week studying, with around 4 to 5 of those hours being structured classes.

This will be made up of a combination of lectures, seminars and workshops, as well as research project sessions.

In each semester, part-time students typically study for approximately 40% to 60% of the full-time equivalent. This usually involves taking two or three taught units per semester, alongside completing a research project that is submitted at the end of the course. Structured classes will take place in-person on our Bath campus.

Assessment breakdown

You will experience a range of different forms of assessment designed to support your professional development.

This will include coursework (such as project work, reports - including statistical reports - research reports, and research proposals), presentations, and a dissertation, as well as examinations. For some units, you’ll be assessed as part of a group.

We can make reasonable adjustments to assessment procedures for students with disabilities. Read our Disability Service’s pages for information.

Recognition of professional qualifications

As well as being recognised as a higher academic qualification, a number of our degrees are also accredited by professional bodies in the United Kingdom. An accredited degree may entitle you to work in a specific profession within the UK, and abroad (where there are reciprocating arrangements with professional bodies in other countries).

The requirements to practise a profession vary from country to country. If you wish to practise your profession outside the United Kingdom, you are advised to confirm that the UK professional qualification you seek is valid in the country in which you are intending to work.
