On this pathway you’ll study how to conduct research in education – the nuts and bolts of study design, data collection and data analysis. This is an ideal pathway if you are thinking of going on to study at doctoral level: it provides excellent preparation for conducting a largescale research project whatever your topic or field of interest. You’ll cover qualitative, quantitative and mixed methods, and engage in in-depth discussions about how design and methodology affect how we conduct research.
