About Research Higher Degrees
A research higher degree is a program of supervised research and study leading to the preparation of a thesis. The holder of a research higher degree will have submitted a thesis which examiners have declared to have provided a contribution to knowledge and demonstrated the candidate's capacity to carry out independent research.
The Faculty of Business and Informatics supports research activities at all levels. Research activity in the Faculty is coordinated by the Associate Dean (Research and Innovation) in conjunction with the Faculty Research Committee.
The Faculty is committed to undertaking research supporting endeavours to build an internationally competitive community and brings together a variety of business and informatics related disciplines.
Thematic priorities have been established for research endeavours. Potential research candidates may be able to secure research opportunities within existing projects in these thematic areas or may alternatively negotiate a topic of their choice where appropriate research supervision can be found.
