Virtual and digitalCourse summary
A Masters by Research (MScR) programme is ideal if you would like to complete a short piece of independent research in Russian studies. The programme is a good stepping-stone to a PhD, but is equally of value as a stand-alone qualification. An MScR programme is likely to suit you if:
- you have a clear idea what you would like to write your masters dissertation about, right from the beginning of the programme
- you would like to be part of a large and supportive postgraduate community, while working independently
- you will take courses in research skills and methods
- you will complete two research assignments, each of 6,000 words
- you will write a 15,000 word dissertation under the guidance of an experienced and well-published supervisor
- social, political and cultural perspectives on Russian language
- transnational Russian culture
- Russian and comparative literature
- media, film studies and theatre studies
- Russian-English translation and interpreting
