Course summary
About the course
The MSc by Research in Psychiatry offers you the opportunity to gain a wide range of transferrable research skills alongside in-depth knowledge and expertise in one of an extensive range of research fields ranging from molecular biology to brain imaging and from behavioural research to epidemiology.
The MSc by Research in Psychiatry is designed to allow you to develop the skills required to become an independent researcher, as well as acquiring expertise within a particular research area.
Working on a project of your own under the guidance of a supervisor provides you with a primary learning experience. You are encouraged to take advantage of the comprehensive, flexible training programme offered by the Medical Sciences Graduate School which includes general and specific research skills and more advanced academic courses.
You may also be required to undertake one or more training courses related to your area of research, i.e., statistics training. In addition to this, the department organises opportunities for students to meet together and to present their research to their peers, enabling you to benefit from feedback and to begin networking with students in other research areas.
The range of research topics available to you is extensive and includes core areas of neurobiology, psychological treatments, developmental psychiatry and social psychiatry. You will be based in Oxford for your MSc by Research but you can be based elsewhere in the world during the data collection phase of your research for a maximum of 6 months.
As a part-time student you will be required to attend seminars/supervision meetings/research meetings and other obligations in Oxford as much as possible. There will be limited flexibility in the dates and pattern of attendance, which will be determined by mutual agreement with your supervisor. Attendance will be required during both term-time and outside of term-time as mutually agreed with your supervisor. You will have the opportunity to tailor your part-time study / skills training in liaison with your supervisor and agree your pattern of attendance.
