You choose between one and four modules from below.

Some of the below modules come from our MSc degrees, and the assessment for these modules is replaced by a short report.

You complete a nine-month research project supported by at least two academic members of staff from Imperial College. Your supervisors will be experts in their field, with a keen interest in your particular research topic. Your research project will be agreed with your MRes supervisors at the time of application.

You will submit a six-page literature review and thesis proposal in early February and present your preliminary research results as a poster at the Centre for Neurotechnology symposium in the summer. You will then continue to work on your research projects until submission of the MRes thesis in mid-September.

The research project makes up three-quarters of your MRes and provides an opportunity to demonstrate your advanced knowledge and write extensively on your chosen research theme.

All applicants must apply online and full details of the process are given in the how to apply section below.
