The Research Process (973C8)

30 credits, Level 7 (Masters)

Autumn and spring teaching

Students will be introduced to the research process and work in collaboration with a member of academic staff on research. The nature of the work will depend on the area. In some areas this will involve learning particularly laboratory protocols (for example, with non-human animals) or creating computer simulations of behaviour (for example, in much cognitive science), but in most cases will involve working with the member of staff from conceptualisation through managing the data collection and data analysis, to research dissemination. There will be at least fortnightly individual supervision sessions with the supervisor to discuss aspects of the research process, but most of the work will be with the academic colleague.
