Embark on a focused research journey with the Business and Management Studies (MA by Research) at the University of Huddersfield. This postgraduate degree is designed for ambitious individuals eager to delve deeply into specific areas of business and management, such as accounting and finance, logistics, operations, organisational behaviour, or strategic marketing. If you possess a keen analytical mind and a passion for uncovering new insights within these fields, this programme offers the ideal platform to develop your independent research capabilities and contribute to academic knowledge. You will explore complex business challenges and opportunities through rigorous investigation.
This full-time, on-campus MA by Research is structured as a one-year intensive study, with minimal formal teaching, allowing you to concentrate on your chosen research topic under expert supervision. You will develop a research proposal in conjunction with your supervisor and have opportunities to enhance your research skills through dedicated training. The culmination of your work will be a thesis of approximately 25,000 words, followed by an examination. Upon successful completion, you will be awarded your Master's degree, with the potential to advance to doctoral studies, and graduate with advanced research methodologies applicable to academic or industrial R&D roles.
