Approach business questions as a researcher. This English-taught MRes develops quantitative methods alongside the theories used to understand organisations and financial decisions.
Research-focused study
Two years combine core, specialist and elective work, with areas spanning accounting, finance, management and marketing. Later choices let students deepen their research interests.
Preparation and possibilities
Applicants need a bachelor’s degree with quantitative preparation in business, economics or related fields, plus at least B2 English. The admissions team also considers references and motivation.
This course is particularly relevant to students considering doctoral research or analytically demanding business roles. Think about a business question you would like to investigate in depth; it can help you compare this research route with a professionally focused master’s.
