Master of Philosophy [M.Phil] [Materials Science and Engineering] From Sheffield Hallam University

On this course, you'll undertake intensive study into a specific, chosen area of materials science and engineering. You'll benefit from expert tutelage, cutting-edge facilities and a supportive research community. Your finished work will stand alongside widely acclaimed MERI publications - a high proportion of which have been considered 'world leading' or 'internationally excellent'.

As this is a research course, most of your work will be carried out independently. You will benefit from the support and expertise of your supervisory team; including a Director of Studies and a second supervisor who have specific interest and expertise in your chosen subject area. These supervisors will assist you in defining your personal programme, provide direction and help you to develop your research.

You learn through:

• Independent research

• Mentoring with your supervisory team

• Laboratory training

• Research training, including mandatory ethics and integrity sessions

• Teacher training

• Participation in the MERI Research Colloquium - presenting posters and oral presentations
