About this course
From October 2016, the MRes in Neurotechnology, usually part of the 4-year Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) in Neurotechnology for Life and Health, will be available as a stand-alone course. The MRes is a one-year full-time programme which aims to provide you with a grounding in Neurotechnology research and also enable you to develop the technical skills required to carry out successful PhD work. The course involves lectures and practical work in the first term, followed by a full-time work on a research project. A variety of seminars and workshops are provided to deepen and broaden your research skill base.
All applicants must apply online. You can usually apply for up to two courses, although your second choice will only be considered if your first-choice application is unsuccessful. Most courses don't have a formal closing date, but popular courses close when they are full, so you should apply early to avoid disappointment. There may also be funding deadlines that apply to you.
