This programme is hosted by the Faculty of Development and Society Graduate School. The Graduate School website provides a communication hub for students and staff engaged in research, information about our research work, and useful contact information.

The programme has courses within all faculties of the University. These courses serve several purposes. They:
• meet the needs of research students for training in social science research methodologies and methods
• provide a vocationally relevant qualification for research-oriented work
• enable established researchers to upgrade specific skills
The programme enables postgraduate students involved in social science research across the University to meet each other, share ideas, and participate in a vibrant research culture based on the Faculty of Development and Society Graduate School.
Courses within the programme are:
• MRes Sociology, Planning and Policy (Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) recognised)
• MRes Psychology (new specialist route seeking ESRC recognition)
• MRes Education (ESRC recognised)
• MRes Cultural Studies (ESRC recognised)
• MRes Business (ESRC recognised)
• MRes Social Work (ESRC recognised)
• MRes Health and Society 
All serve as training for research students in disciplines using the theory and methods of the social sciences.
As a student on the programme, you study approaches and methods available to social science researchers, and explore their implications, limits and uses.
Through designing and conducting research you gain technical competence in research and evaluation. You also develop theoretical knowledge and critical understanding of research epistemologies and methods, and the ethical issues involved in social research.
All routes include modules in qualitative research and quantitative research, together with modules specific to theory and research design in your discipline or field of interest. You can take individual modules as stand alone courses, or combine them to gain a postgraduate certificate or postgraduate diploma. The full MRes includes a research-based dissertation, which may become a pilot study towards a PhD.
We normally accept applications until September for an October start, or January for a February start. Your application must be accepted before you enrol so please apply early. 
If you already hold a research studentship at Sheffield Hallam University, please consult your supervisor and MRes route or programme leader. You need to complete an associate student form to be accepted onto the MRes modules you need for research training.
Reikalaujamas išsilavinimas

Į magistro studijų programas gali stoti visi, baigę universitetą arba besimokantys paskutiniame kurse. Studijos kurias baigei ar tebesimokai turi būti panašios krypties kaip ir tos, į kurias nori stoti, kadangi priėmimas yra paremtas ECTS kreditų suderinamumu.

  • ECTS kreditų išrašas - jei dar nesi baigęs aukštosios mokyklos, būtina prisegti ECTS kreditų išrašą, kuriame būtų matyti, kokius dalykus Tu mokeisi bei kokius pažymius ir kiek kreditų už juos gavai. Kai siunti anketą paskutiniame kurse, diplomą reikia prisegti vėliau, kai tik jį gausi.

  • Bakalauro diplomas – jei jau esi baigęs aukštąją mokyklą, išrašo nereikia, užtenka prie anketos prisegti savo Bakalauro diplomą.
