Volunteers are sought to participate in a short study exploring how people choose to pursue postgraduate study.

This study is open to individuals who are interested in pursuing a Masters degree. Your participation involves completing an online task in which you will use the FindAMasters.com website, and then answering questions about the usability and specific features of the site.

The first study session will take place on Monday 30th June at the University of Sheffield's Sir Frederick Mappin Building in Room MAPP-F110 (Mappin Street, Sheffield, S1 3JD). It should take about a half an hour to complete, and each participant will receive a £10 Amazon Voucher.

To express interest in participating, or for additional information, please contact Courtney Mulligan by emailing: cemulligan1 (at) sheffield (dot) ac (dot) uk.

Thanks in advance,
