This module sets out the programme’s focus on a deeper engagement with academic and professional skills to support the preparation for your Final Project. You will explore research methods and approaches to be able to create worthwhile research design.

This module will enable you to develop your academic literacy and proposal writing skills through the planned teaching and learning activities. It will support you in developing self-management attributes that are associated with professional practice.

This module will provide opportunities to critically analyse and evaluate resources related to contemporary issues in the field of advertising and branding.

You will examine academic and market intelligence sources to engage with current discussions in the field and to identify the gaps in the literature.

You will be encouraged to utilise the range of physical and online library resources to advance your research skills. The emphasis will be on designing and implementing a viable research proposal. In designing your research proposal, you will take inclusive, ethical and sustainable issues into consideration.

During this module you will further your understanding of appropriate research design and methodologies to your discipline.

The module builds on the academic and professional skills that you gained from previous modules in the programme. You will continue to develop your research skills further in Final project module.

This module is designed as an introduction to the different aspects that comprise biomedical research, allowing students to gain critical thinking, effective communication and study design skills that will prepare the students to undertake and direct a significant research project.

The aims of this module are to further develop the research, study and time management skills you will need for a substantial independent research investigation.

The purpose of this module is to help you prepare your Masters dissertation in Languages & Cultures or Translation & Professional Communication Skills, including the oral presentation that forms part of its assessment. The emphasis is on skills required for a formal oral presentation, and for writing a dissertation on any topic within the scope of the MA Languages & Cultures and MA Translation & Professional Communication Skills programmes (processing, analysing, and evaluating theoretical frameworks and research methods; formulating research questions; articulating and organising ideas; developing and structuring an argument; processing, analysing and evaluating research sources; bibliographical skills; presentation and editing).

Particular attention will be paid to helping you develop the ability to evaluate and revise your own work. Other skills (such as the gathering, processing, and analysis of archival and linguistic sources) may also be covered, depending on your dissertation topic. Attention will be given to making you sensitive to the dynamics of collaborative research as well as of the requirements of individual research. This module also helps to prepare you for the next stage in your career, whether you are continuing with postgraduate study at the MPhil and/or PhD level, or entering employment. You will learn to identify your intellectual and practical strengths so that you can maximise their potential.
