Students' experiences of interdisciplinary Masters' courses

This research project aimed to evaluate the learning experiences of taught postgraduate students on interdisciplinary Masters’ courses using a case-study approach. It draws on the conceptual framework used to evaluate undergraduate learning experiences (Entwistle 2003) while capitalising on prior experience in the project team of evaluating postgraduate courses from different stakeholder perspectives (McEwen et al. 2003; McEwen et al. 2005) and in evaluating diversity including interdisciplinarity in postgraduate co-learning environments (Le Heron et al. 2006; Jennings 2003; Jennings and Hassam 2004; McEwen et al. 2008).
