Program outline
The Masters Degree by Research is a program of supervised research and study
leading to the submission of a thesis which makes a contribution to knowledge.
The program is governed by the Rules for Masters Degrees by Research which
provide details regarding all aspects of admission, progression, submission
and examination of the thesis. Consultation with the Associate Dean (Research)
of the appropriate faculty will assist applicants to determine eligibility for
admission, to identify the proposed areas of research and to ascertain the
availability of suitable supervisors.
Program structure
To complete the program, a candidate will normally study for an expected
period of 2 years (full-time) or 4 years (part-time). New candidates may enrol
at any time of year and continuing candidates will be re-enrolled at the beginning
of each academic year. The courses in which Masters students enrol are ungraded.
Candidates who may be required to complete prescribed courses will be enrolled
in a separate program (CP20).
