Research Project

 MSc Research Project

For the Cognitive Neuroscience MSc, the research project constitutes one-third of the total number of course credits (60 out of 180 total credits). Students will be given a description of the research interests of lecturers who are willing to supervise projects and an outline of possible projects. Students are also encouraged to generate their own ideas. 

The project will be assessed with a 10,000-12,000 word written dissertation.

 MRes Research Project

For the Cognitive Neuroscience MRes, the research project makes up two-thirds of the overall credit value of the programme (120 out of 180 credits) and it is a very important part of the programme. MRes students can approach potential supervisors before starting the programme to discuss research project opportunities.  Alternatively, MRes students can select an available project from a list at the start of the programme.   Note that we cannot guarantee the availability of specific projects and supervisors.

The project will be assessed with a 15,000-17,000 word written dissertation.
