• Investigate, analyse and synthesise complex information, problems, concepts and theories and to apply established theories to different bodies of knowledge or practice
• Generate and evaluate complex ideas and concepts at an abstract level
• Use and evaluate research and research methods.
• Communication and technical skills to present coherent and sustained argument and to disseminate research results to specialist and non-specialist audiences
• Technical and communication skills to design, evaluate, implement, analyse, theorise and disseminate research that makes a contribution to knowledge and/or professional practice.

As a graduate you will demonstrate the application of these knowledge and skills:

• With creativity and initiative to new situations and/or for further learning
• With high-level personal autonomy and accountability
• To plan and execute a substantial piece of research.
