Our research has been classed as 'world leading' in 10 subjects by the latest Research Assessment Exercise (RAE 2008).

Taught Masters
A taught Masters degree (normally an MA, MSc or MEd) is an award granted on the basis of an individually initiated and registered research programme.
The programme is built around a supervised thesis on a substantial piece of work, which may need to show evidence of originality and contain material worthy of publication. It also involves an element of research training through generic courses and taught modules and/or courses.
