Research environment
Our research environment has strong national and international links. This active background means that research students, whether studying full-time or part-time, join a group of engaged researchers involved in pushing forward both new knowledge and professional practice.
All students are required to take and complete a Postgraduate Certificate in Research Methods to support the development of their project and their education as researchers.
