Relevant experience may also be taken into account. The number of places available on the course is limited and places will be allocated on a competitive basis according to qualifications and experience. The offer of a place does NOT imply that funding will be offered. Duration: 12 months full-time (MRes); 9 months (PgDip) Content: The main objectives of these degree programmes are to: Provide training in research methods as a precursor to PhDs in marine biological sciences. Provide training in marine biology, statistical, mathematical, and programming skills. Facilitate understanding of the value of an integrated, multi-level and multidisciplinary approach to managing marine resources. Provide training in generic and life skills. Candidates must attend the following designated programme of courses unless they have previously passed courses deemed by the Programme Co-ordinator to be equivalent to one or more of the specified modules, in which case another course must be taken from those indicated: Stage 1 ZO 5005 Field Trip (Cromarty) (0.5 credit points) ZO 5008 Marine Ecology and Ecosystem Management (7.5 credit points) ZO 5007 Fish Biology (7.5 credit points) ZO 5301 Population and Community Ecology (15 credit points) BI 5009 Experimental Design and Analysis (15 credit points) EK 5403 Molecular Ecological Techniques (7.5 credit points) * This course runs over both half-sessions. Stage 2 All candidates must take the following courses: EK 5507 Personal Research Development (0 credit points) EV 5501 Spatial Information Analysis (7.5 credit points) ZO 5506 Stock Assessment (7.5 credit points) ZO 5701 Fisheries Technologies and Surveys (7.5 credit points) ZO 5801 Ecosystem Management (10 credit points) BI 5901 Research Project Planning (7.5 credit points) Only candidates who complete the above programme at an appropriate standard will be allowed to progress to Stage 3. Candidates who fail to achieve the standard for progression to, or who elect not to proceed to, the final stage shall be awarded a Postgraduate Diploma if they have achieved the appropriate number of credits for that award. Stage 3 ZO 5902 Research Project/Dissertation (60 credit points) Assessment: By a combination of (1) written assignments and laboratory reports as prescribed for each course, (2) summative examinations covering the entire curriculum and (3) a dissertation (submitted in an agreed manuscript format) covering the research project. Both MRes and Diploma candidates are usually required to attend an oral examination. The degree of MRes shall not be awarded to a candidate who fails to achieve a CAS mark of 9 or above in the MRes project.
