Type of institution: University/Higher Education Institution
Level: Postgraduate
CRICOS: 00117J

In a Doctor of Philosophy (Indigenous), you will develop confidence in navigating Indigenous and non-Indigenous standpoints, creating new approaches to complex issues. Designed for high performing university graduates, the PhD (Indigenous) is a postgraduate research degree with a supervised project of original research at its core. Throughout your degree, you will receive guidance from our extended advisory team, giving you space to innovate with structures to support you. Your candidature will be structured through a series of specialised Indigenous research intensives and support from highly experienced advisors. You will identify a novel approach to explore a real world issue, develop a research question, design and implement your project, and analyse the findings. This work will allow you to develop a proposition that contributes to existing understandings through the completion of a PhD (Indigenous) thesis.
