Research

This programme supports researchers in taking a reflective and strategic approach to developing and managing their careers. It provides engaging, flexible and interactive training in the key capabilities that underpin successful research leadership and helps to ensure that researchers’ career goals are well-articulated and supported by a professional knowledge base.

This programme supports postgraduate researchers to develop the key skills needed for a Master's degree or PhD. It will help you to manage your research project effectively, understand the importance of intellectual property and build positive relationships with your doctoral supervisors.

This programme will support you through the challenges of transitioning from a doctorate to life beyond your current research. It will encourage you to translate your experience into innovation and enterprise, and to reflect on how your career can impact the wider world in a positive way.

This programme supports postgraduate researchers who are starting to think about publishing their research and communicating it more widely, both within and outside academia. It provides a practical guide to the publishing process and explores how researchers can build networks and communicate their work effectively to a range of audiences.

This programme prepares Master’s and PhD candidates to face the ethical challenges of their research. It provides guidance on how to work ethically in different circumstances, encouraging researchers to reflect on their assumptions and behaviour.

Research Impact: Creating Meaning and Value teaches the fundamentals of research impact – what it is and how it can be embedded into every step of the research journey – to help support universities in embedding a broader culture of research impact. This programme is relevant to researchers at all levels, with particular relevance for doctoral students, postdoctoral researchers, and early-career researchers. It is suitable across all major disciplines.

Research Integrity, Second Edition provides a comprehensive overview of how researchers can meet their responsibilities and obligations, drawing on the Australian Code for the Responsible Conduct of Research (2018).

Research Integrity, Second Edition provides a comprehensive overview of how researchers in the UK can meet their responsibilities, setting out the key principles and practices of good research conduct, and guiding learners through the lifecycle of a research project.

Research Integrity, Second Edition provides a comprehensive overview of how researchers in Ireland can meet their responsibilities, setting out the key principles and practices of good research conduct, and guiding learners through the lifecycle of a research project.

Research Integrity for Experienced Researchers addresses key research integrity challenges faced by senior and established researchers, principal investigators, and those with leadership and management responsibilities, with coverage across three broad themes that support and promote research integrity: professional behaviours, the research process, and collaboration.

These courses support Master's students undertaking taught courses or independent research and PhD candidates. They provide guidance on how to conduct a literature review and cover the latest trends and developments in research practice, focusing on the practical applications of research methods in the areas of social sciences, arts and humanities and STEM.
