Within our multidisciplinary School of Sport, Rehabilitation and Exercise Sciences, we offer research supervision in a broad range of fields.
As a research student at Essex, you’ll work at the heart of our internationally acknowledged and well-connected research community. Our School of Sport, Rehabilitation and Exercise Sciences offers an environment with an excellent reputation for research and teaching. A unique feature of our School is that many of our staff work with local National Health Service (NHS) Trusts and other local health agencies, which enhances our grasp of the contemporary links between academic research, the major issues of the day and practice.
Assessment
The aim of undertaking your MPhil is to train as an independent researcher who can critically assess other research work and have a comprehensive knowledge of at least one area.
Our MPhil programme is usually two-years' duration.
Your future
We currently have graduates working in both clinical and management positions in local trusts, hospitals, and care organisations, as well as in local and county councils.
