Research programmes involve writing a thesis on a particular topic with specialist supervision. You are given research training, which is tailored to the particular needs of your research and takes into account any training you have previously received. You also have opportunities to attend modules on relevant subjects on a non-assessed basis to fill any gaps in your background.

In the Research Excellence Framework (REF) 2021, 100% of our Social Work and Social Policy research was classified as world-leading or 'internationally excellent' for impact and environment
