The Master of Research is your opportunity to explore the questions that inspire you and contribute new knowledge in a field you are passionate about. Combining advanced research training with a substantial independent research project, this degree equips you with the skills, confidence and experience to investigate complex problems and generate meaningful insights. Unlike traditional postgraduate study, the Master of Research immerses you in the research culture of your chosen discipline from the outset. You'll develop expertise through a School-based major, learning alongside experienced researchers while building skills in research design, methods, academic writing and project development. You can choose from a diverse range of disciplines across the arts, business, education, health, medicine, psychology, science, engineering and technology. Your experience can be tailored towards your interests and career goals.
