Teaching
The MPhil involves research only and teaching is delivered through meetings with an academic supervisor.
| One to one supervision | Each student identifies a research supervisor prior to making an application. The MPhil project is developed in correspondence with the supervisor. At the outset of the MPhil course the student and supervisor arrange a schedule of meetings. The °Ç¸ç³Ô¹Ï publishes an annual which sets out the University’s expectations regarding supervision. |

| Seminars & classes | There are no formal teaching sessions attached to this MPhil, though as necessary the student will be encouraged to participate in methods training through classes at the °Ç¸ç³Ô¹Ï's Social Science Research Methods Programme (SSRMP). |
