This one-year degree is designed to further develop your knowledge in relation to Middle East and Islamic Studies whilst also strengthening your research skills through directed independent study and discipline specific research methods training. In order to successfully complete the programme, you will need strong research skills, an ability to work independently.
Unlike the MRes in Middle Eastern Studies, the MRes in Humanities (Middle Eastern and Islamic Studies) is designed for those wishing to complete research in the arts and humanities. The skills gained from writing a substantial dissertation, compiling accurate and reasoned bibliographies and pursuing guided reading with a senior academic, provide the necessary grounding for both pursuit of doctoral study and/or a career as a professional researcher.
Teaching takes place over two semesters (October to May), followed by completion of the dissertation over the summer (June to September).
