Masters in Health Sciences
(Rehabilitation)
The Masters programme
is an option for students who wish to pursue study at a higher
academic level. Students completing the MHealSci (Rehabilitation)
degree will not only demonstrate evidence of their ability to
complete high level academic study, but also possession of research
skills to an internationally recognised standard. The main objective
of doing a research project at Masters level is to demonstrate
that you can tackle research in an appropriate way, collect and
manage data, interpret your findings and carry out constructive
criticism. It is not a requirement that the results should necessarily
represent a substantial contribution to knowledge in the field.
