An Introduction to Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) New
This module will provide an introduction to using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) as a research methodology, including thinking about interview preparation to elicit suitable data, the theoretical underpinning of this approach, and conducting analysis of interview data using IPA. Students will gain confidence in incorporating IPA into their research design and will conduct some set activities to reflect on the practicalities of this.
- Postgraduate students and staff
- Further details regarding eligibility criteria are available here
- Students should have some basic knowledge of qualitative interviews and thematic analysis, for example, from attending the CaRM module An Overview of Qualitative Data Collection and Analysis. Students can attend without this, but would find it helpful to have this foundation.
- Students will require a laptop with speakers to access the pre recorded lectures.

Moodle is the 'Virtual Learning Environment' (VLE) that CaRM uses to deliver online courses.
CaRM instructors use Moodle to make teaching resources available before, during, and/or after classes, and to make announcements and answer questions.
For this reason, it is vital that all students enrol onto and explore their course Moodle pages once booking their CaRM modules via the UTBS, and that they do so before their module begins. Moodle pages for modules should go live around a week before the module commences, but some may be made visible to students, earlier.
