About Management (Pathway to PhD), MRes - at University of Exeter

The MRes Management (Pathway to PhD) is a one-year programme that provides a rigorous foundation in the skills required to conduct high-quality research in management and social sciences in general. It is intended for anyone wishing to progress onto a PhD in Management or another related social science.
The MRes programme will provide you with substantive training in the research methods and methodologies used in PhD-level social science, the foundational Micro- and Macro- theories in Management, and the research skills and best practices needed to be a successful researcher.
The research-based dissertation will enable you to create, with the support of a supervisor, a comprehensive literature review of your chosen research topic and then problematize this existing research to develop a strong research agenda for a PhD.
You will receive instruction and guidance from our internationally respected academic staff who conduct and publish world-leading research.
Following successful completion of your MRes, you will then progress onto our three-year Management MPhil/PhD programme at University of Exeter.
