Our MRes will enable you to develop transferable academic and professional skills, and gain research skills and experience in children’s health research. As the only programme of its kind in the UK, the MRes provides an opportunity to access the wealth of cutting-edge research conducted at the UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health (UCL GOSICH) and Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH).
The degree is centred on a research project in an area of child health that interests you. Conducting your own research will support you in learning how to search literature and plan a research project, use statistical knowledge to critically appraise your own and published work, and communicate and justify your results. You will be encouraged to consider the implications of child health and/or healthcare policy and to produce reports of your results to publication standard.
Who this course is for
The programme is designed for a range of clinical and non-clinical applicants. With flexibility in taught module choices and a broad portfolio of research projects, you can tailor the programme to suit your specific interest in the field of paediatrics and child health. Our students include postgraduate doctors, scientists, and healthcare, pharmaceutical and biotech professionals.
Applicants should hold either a medical degree (MBBS) or a minimum of an upper second-class UK Bachelors degree in a relevant discipline or an overseas qualification of an equivalent standard.
