This course allows you to combine material from any of our taught Masters courses in the School of Science and Technology with an extended research project over a one-year period.
The taught modules are delivered by a combination of lectures, seminars and tutorials. The Research Project will involve the design, implementation and reporting of a major research task.

Facilities
This course benefits from the excellent facilities and equipment available in the School of Science and Technology. The School has a dedicated research facility for specialist work in the area of imaging and display, housing a class 100 clean room, X-ray security and analysis system, and a suite of display characterisation rooms.
The MRes offers two main opportunities. Firstly, by developing significant expertise in a specific area of study, you will differentiate yourself from other applicants in the same field. Alternatively, if you wish to continue your research as a career, this qualification is an ideal basis for further study leading to a PhD. If you continue your studies at Nottingham Trent University, work originally undertaken for an MRes may be put towards building a research portfolio leading to a PhD.
