Statement of interest |
MA applicants will vary in what they put in their statement of interest. Some have a very precise project in mind and they outline that particular project and indicate someone they feel would be able to best supervise them. But some applicants haven't narrowed in on a precise project so they indicate the area in which they are interested in studying. For the MA, we do not expect original research but demonstrated mastery of a given body of sociological literature related to a focused research question. If known, you could indicate whether you wish to pursue the essay or thesis option. Some MA students choose to do field work, but it is not mandatory. The length of the statement is about a page although it might be longer if you have a precise project (so 300 to 500 words in general). |

Applicants to the Master’s program are not required to select a research area or find a suitable supervisor in advance. |
