Researching Language, Culture and Communication in the Global World
This module will introduce you to solving real world problems in the area of Language, Culture and Communication with research methods including forms of discourse analysis, questionnaires, interviews and narrative inquiry.
You will reflect on some key issues such as the nature of knowledge, theory and data. This will allow you to critically evaluate studies and their research methods, and to design your own study or intervention. You will also discuss practical challenges of designing and conducting research such as defining research questions, identifying appropriate methods, research management and problem solving, writing up research, ethical issues, presenting research and thinking reflexively about research.
You will also be introduced to the option of producing a professional project as an alternative to the traditional dissertation. -

Researching the Environment
This module enables you to build on your research skills in preparation for running your own research in part 3. Building on the research skills learnt in part 1, you will work in small groups to first refine a broad research question into a testable and focussed question. You will then design and plan a field data collection campaign, with responsibility for all logistic organisation as well as ensuring the data collected enables you to address the research question. Finally, whilst on our residential field course, you will carry out the data collection before presenting your findings as a poster to the rest of the group. After working through this process, you will reflect on the challenges you faced, successes you achieved, and how you can put this learning into practice when working on your dissertation. -

Researching the Holocaust
This module explores the mass murder of the Jews of Europe between 1933 and 1945. At its core is an examination of the nature of National Socialism, its genocidal drive, and the stages by which its practice of antisemitic persecution evolved into a continent-wide genocide in the context of war. It examines the development of Nazi persecution and the explanations of this. It examines the radicalisation of Nazi violence under the impact of war. It treats individual national or regional case studies in depth. It explores the collaboration of non-German actors and it explores Jewish life in the camps, in ghettos and in hiding. Its focus is on understanding the capacity of the National Socialist regime to mobilise broad sections of German society behind its genocidal policies and the consequences of this for the Jewish population of Europe. -
