Internship/dissertation units

Here you will find information about the two Human Rights Project units 601 and 691 that will need to be completed in order to attain the Master of Human Rights qualification.

Under the guidance of a supervisor these research units are either practice-based or theory-based, depending on the interest of the student. A practice-based project involves an internship at a human rights organisation. A theory-based project involves preparation for a dissertation.

If you are a student, please have a look at Dissertation FAQs or Internship FAQs for more information. Also see Student case studies or Past student projects for an idea of what projects our students have completed and the various organisations they have been involved with.

If you are an organisation able to take on internship students, please have a look at Organisation FAQs for more information.
