Course programme

Structure This MSc by Research programme requires the student to undertake a substantial piece of independent research at the cutting edge of clinical, health or social care (180 credits). It is the normal expectation that the independent research should be of a publishable standard in a high quality peer reviewed journal. In addition to the support of the research project’s supervisors and from fellow postgraduate research and professional researchers within all of IMSCaR’s three research centres and especially its NWORTH Trials Unit, there will also be the opportunity to undertake taught modules at postgraduate level as well as attend workshops and courses provided for postgraduate research students by the University’s Academic Development Unit. Any additional taught modules and courses will not count as credits towards this or any other qualification but, if identified as being of developmental value by the student and the supervisory team, will provide the extra skills and knowledge needed to undertake postgraduate research. The NWORTH Trials Unit NWORTH, or the North Wales organisation for Randomised Trials (in health and social care), was founded in 2002 and is one of the original seventeen fully accredited UKCRC clinical trials units registered in 2007 in recognition of being able to provide the full spectrum of expertise required to deliver high quality clinical research and the capability to centrally co ordinate multi centre trials to the highest standards. NWORTH is active across a wide range of clinical, health and social care research interests by collaborating with research active specialists in disciplines such as cancer care, children’s health, dementia, dentistry, mental health, obstetrics, oncology, pharmacy and public health. Whilst students need to produce independent research, the NWORTH Trials Unit can provide a wealth of advice and support where appropriate including project design and governance, data collection and management, QA and compliance plus analysis.
