This MSc top-up course is available to students who have completed the Postgraduate Diploma Leadership and Service Improvement (5308) and wish to progress to complete the full MSc. The MSc top-up will consist of the 60 credit Dissertation module which is a cross-school module for all Masters level courses.

 

The Dissertation module provides the student with the opportunity to undertake original enquiry in a chosen area of professional practice, either through a systematic review of the literature or a research/work-based project such as service evaluation or audit. Students will be able to consolidate and extend their knowledge and understanding of research and evaluation design and associated methods of enquiry during six taught sessions. They will subsequently be supported by a named supervisor to develop the practical skills necessary to plan and carry out their chosen project.
