About this course
This MRes prepares you for more advanced research projects at MPhil/PhD level, but is also a degree in its own right. It's ideal if you're considering a 'taster' year of research, or if you're keen to complete shorter term research at graduate level.Study in depth and reflect critically upon an aspect of research methods relevant to your dissertation topic, under the guidance of a supervisor. Where appropriate, you can choose to write your research project on methodological topics arising from the syllabus of one of our taught Masters-level modules. Carry out systematic research into the primary, critical and theoretical literature relevant to the dissertation topic, under the guidance of your supervisor. The Department of English and Creative Writing at Goldsmiths comprises leading scholars and creative writers, and has an extensive research community. Beyond this original research into the literature, cultures and languages of the past and present, a substantial number of our academic staff produce the literature of the future, as creative writers. The Department is home to the Goldsmiths Prize, established in 2013 to celebrate the qualities of creative daring associated with the College.
