health dissertation module

Dissertation Module Requirements

At Public Health U, our courses are tailored to equip students with the necessary competencies to enhance population health. We aim to empower individuals with the skills to implement programs that are action-oriented and evidence-based, emphasizing collaboration and the utilization of open educational resources. The Dissertation course serves as to evaluate students’ ability to reflect on these objectives and apply acquired skills effectively. This component of the program offers students a structured, supervised, and evaluated opportunity in public health practice. It entails integrating professional knowledge, designing and employing methods to address public health problems, collecting and analyzing data, and communicating findings effectively. 

Students are required to complete 2 courses Research Methods and Public Health Ethics simultaneously with the Dissertation Module. These courses are crafted with the explicit aim of guiding students towards producing robust research and ethical considerations, ensuring their dissertations are not only academically sound but also ethically grounded.Ultimately, students are expected to provide evidence-based conclusions and recommendations for policy, planning, practice, or research within their chosen area of focus.

Prerequisites for the Dissertation

Successful completion of the prerequisite modules, the required modules, and 2-3 electives, without any fail, is required (having achieved a diploma level).

• If a student scores below 65%, they must complete the Fundamentals Prerequisite before advancing to the Dissertation. This prerequisite applies to any courses with scores below the passing grade, ensuring a solid foundation before proceeding with the Dissertation.

we want our courses to provide the competencies to improve

Introduction

The Dissertation (Level 7) is typically taken as the final module for a variety of health-related courses from across the College of Health, Wellbeing and Life Sciences. The module provides students with the opportunity to lead extended research into their chosen area of interest with guidance from a named supervisor. There will be opportunities to develop practical skills in research culminating in a critical work of substantial length and sustained inquiry.

Who the course is aimed at

The module is aimed at health professionals undertaking MSc courses from a variety of fields including Nursing, Physiotherapy, Occupational Therapy, Radiotherapy and Healthcare Education. Through this module, students can gain the necessary experience to lead future research with confidence and generate publishable new knowledge within their fields of practice.

Benefits of taking the module to the individual, the organisation and the patient

For the individual, this module further develops learner autonomy and enables the individual to demonstrate their knowledge of research methods and their application. It provides an opportunity to contribute to the ongoing development of their profession, the service provided and the existing evidence base in their chosen project field. It may also provide a basis for further academic development i.e. progression onto a PhD/Professional Doctorate.

For the organisation, it provides support to an individual practitioner to conduct a piece of research/service evaluation or development which addresses organisational priorities.

For the patient, individuals are encouraged to conduct a project that has clear value in terms of improving clinical outcomes/patient experience.

What you learn – overall aims of the module

Students will have an opportunity to develop a relevant research question into an ethical, robust project proposal. Once approved (in accordance with our Faculty Research Ethics Committee protocols), the student will progress the project into a final written submission. Generating a project from conception to completion can be a highly rewarding venture and student will have opportunities to develop skills in research leadership, decision making, ethical practice, data analysis, and critical writing along the way. Throughout, students will have access to a named academic supervisor who will provide timely support and advice.

General areas covered – indicative content

The dissertation is a practical module enabling students to choose a project (appropriate to their course) and develop this into a final dissertation submission. Support and guidance is provided through a detailed Blackboard website and a named supervisor.

To study this distance learning module you will require access to a computer with

Global Health Dissertation

Module overview.

If you successfully complete the taught component of the programme, then you will be allowed to progress to the MSc dissertation equivalent to 60 CATS/30 ECTS, which can be completed over a 3 months period during summer (usually mid-June to mid-September). However, if there are extenuating circumstances that prevent you to complete the requirements of the taught modules at the June Examination Board but are eligible to take referrals in the supplementary/referral period (Aug/Sep), then you may progress to the dissertation project.

The dissertation module will provide you with an opportunity to undertake an independent research project which will lead to the production of a systematic research document of professional standard not exceeding 15,000-20,000 words. There are wide ranging flexible options to choose dissertation project topics making use of the global health expertise across the University and the Global Health Research Institute at Southampton

Aims and Objectives

Learning outcomes.

Having successfully completed this module you will be able to:

• Identify, obtain and analyse suitable data to enable the research question to be answered
• Understand and apply theoretical frameworks to the chosen area of study
• Identify key research questions and hypotheses in a relevant global health topic on which you will carry out independent research
• Conduct a critical appraisal of literature on the relevant topic
• Apply the quantitative methods training acquired in the taught element of the programme by designing an appropriate research strategy and research methodology to carry out your research
• Describe the process of carrying out independent research in written format and report your results and conclusions with reference to existing literature
• Show evidence of clarity of argument, understanding of the chosen topic area, and presentation of technical information
• Manage your time effectively whilst working on your independent research

The module will include:

• at least three dissertation skills workshops in semester 2 to outline expectations for the preparation of the Dissertation (guidelines, aims, choice of topic, period of study, supervision, length, layout, language, referencing, bibliography, figures/tables, risk assessment form, ethics, disclaimer, binding);
• Students are required to submit an outline to their supervisor by mid/late June. The expected length for the outline is around 1000 words. It is a compulsory formative piece of work.;
• meetings with your Dissertation Supervisor over the summer period;
• independent study.

As part of this module, you will be offered an opportunity to discuss and agree the topic of your dissertation with the MSc Programme Co-ordinator and your allocated Dissertation Supervisor. You will receive instructions regarding a range of available/potential topics. However, we encourage you to choose a dissertation topic on your own, which could be based on a specific area of your research interest, work experience or reflecting on the modules taught in the programme.

Learning and Teaching

Teaching and learning methods.

The module will be taught mainly through individual supervision and independent learning, although there will be some formal lectures. The outline will be marked by the supervisor. Written feedback will be given. Extra verbal feedback may also be given.

This is how we’ll give you feedback as you are learning. It is not a formal test or exam.

Research outline

• Assessment Type: Formative
• Feedback: The outline will be marked by the supervisor. Written feedback will be given. Extra verbal feedback may also be given.
• Final Assessment: No
• Group Work: No

This is how we’ll formally assess what you have learned in this module.

This is how we’ll assess you if you don’t meet the criteria to pass this module.

An internal repeat is where you take all of your modules again, including any you passed. An external repeat is where you only re-take the modules you failed.
