About Master of Science by Research - Social and Political Science

For students looking to undertake doctoral-level research in the Social and Political Science subject area, this Masters by Research degree will give students the necessary skills through a structured program of research training.

The Master of Science by Research (MScR) is different from the other programs in that, typically, taught masters have more focus on subject-relevant substantive topics rather than acquiring the skills to undertake advanced research, which is the focus of this degree.

Students will have the opportunity to undertake research training alongside an independent research project, supported by a supervisor.
