About Master of Science by Research - Spanish, Portuguese and Latin American Studies - Hispanic Studies

A Masters by Research (MScR) program is ideal if students have a clear idea of the independent research they wish to undertake at masters level.

The program is a good stepping stone to a Doctor of Philosophy, but is equally of value as a stand-alone qualification. It allows students to be part of the wider taught masters community, whilst specializing in what most interests them right from the beginning.

Spanish was formally added to the University of Edinburgh’s curriculum in 1919 and, in over a century since, has developed into one of the best-established subject areas of its kind in the United Kingdome, with teaching and research in Portuguese, Basque, Catalan, Latin American, Portuguese and Spanish studies.

University of Edinburgh has particular strengths in:
  • Latin American poetry, narrative and film, especially in Chile and Argentina from the 19th to 21st centuries
  • the Spanish Golden Age
  • Modern Spanish narrative
  • Indigenous filmmaking
  • Cuban post-1959 culture
  • Lusophone African literatures
  • Portuguese contemporary culture
