Extended Research Project
During this module, students will gain extensive experience in conducting high-quality research in real-world settings through placements in research laboratories based at Gibbet Hill Campus and/or University Hospitals Coventry & Warwickshire while adhering to the research process and producing a dissertation to meet university requirements.
To facilitate a well-informed decision-making process, the module incorporates a 'taster' period. During this phase, students will have the opportunity to explore two of their preferred project choices by actively participating in the respective research laboratories. This hands-on experience during the taster period is designed to provide students with valuable insights into two of their preferred project choices. As a result, students will be better equipped to make informed decisions regarding the selection of their extended research project topic.
