Research Methods Series A (complete beginners) guide data handling: What is mean, mode, median and range?

A standalone series, but also to support our understanding of research integrity & ethics; the research methods series will give overviews of qualitative and quantitative or mixed methods; why some researchers will adopt certain methods; and why some approaches are more suitable than others.

Whether you are currently deciding which approach to use; want to understand why a researcher has utilised a methodology that you are not familiar with; or even decide why you will NOT be using a particular method, then this series will cover these questions and more. If we have a broader understanding of why people use different approaches, then we can understand how integrity & ethics impacts in different research areas.

The sessions will provide an overview; signposts to follow up on specific areas; the positives and negatives of different approaches. You will need to speak to your department for full research methodology training in your chosen practice.

You can attend the whole series or just pick the ones of specific interest.

Understanding your upgrade

Many of us are asked to go through an upgrade process after our first year. This takes us from MPhil to PhD study process. It allows us and colleagues to reflect on the previous year, research knowledge gained, and plans for the next stages.

The session will inform you of the University’s criteria for a successful upgrade process and help prepare you for it. The facilitators will share their own experiences of passing upgrade process and provide you with particular tips and advice that will be useful for you to understand what your need to do and how to successfully pass your own upgrade.

By the end of the workshop, you should be able to:

- Have a better understanding of what is the upgrade process

- Gain practical tips on how to prepare for your upgrade

- Reflect on progress made during your upgrade
