The MRes is a masters programme based around individual students' research projects. The MRes is available as a full-time one-year or two-year part-time programme (please note that the studentships only apply to the one year full-time route). The Department offers a number of studentships to cover the cost of fees. These are open to UK/EU and International students. The MRes in Linguistics or English Language offers a natural progression for students who have obtained a good undergraduate/BA degree in Linguistics or English Language. The degrees offer the perfect start for students who are looking for a career in research, teaching , other areas of the public or private sectors , or hoping to go on to a PhD programme. On completion, students will be well-prepared to commence work on a PhD and to finish this within three years.
