Master of Research in Evolution - From the Galapagos to the 21st Century (MRes)
Program Overview
Discover mechanisms of evolution, and its impact on modern life, on this Master’s course at the University of Southampton.
You'll learn core skills in research, design, and project management as you conduct your own innovative research on evolution. You’ll be able to work with subject area experts, ranging from biology to computing to philosophy. Together, you’ll explore how we reconstruct the history of organisms, test evolutionary theories, and use evolution to inspire technology.
From an evolutionary perspective, you’ll better understand how organisms are built, function, and interact with the world. You’ll work closely with academics across the University while developing knowledge and transferrable skills in your chosen specialism.
As an MRes student, you’ll dedicate significant time to your research project and less to the classroom.
Through classes and research, you'll form your own perspective on how evolutionary methods contribute to modern interdisciplinary science. You'll investigate subject areas such as:
- biological sciences
- archaeology
- computer sciences
- engineering
- maths
- medicine
- ocean and Earth sciences
Besides gaining a firm foundation in evolutionary biology, you’ll learn about new methods, current global challenges, and the latest research topics. These include:
- evolutionary medicine
- evolutionary developmental biology (evo-devo)
- bioengineering
- computational evolution
- the philosophy of science
- crop evolution
- phylogenetic analysis
Learn more about topics you could work on in your MRes in Evolution research project.
