Postgraduate programs
- If you choose to do postgraduate by coursework, you will undertake a selection of advanced study units, and in many instances, practical work, research projects and/or a dissertation. Our postgraduate coursework degrees (many of them with Commonwealth Supported Places and/or HECS-HELP and a $2000 bursary) will allow you to further advance your existing qualifications and achievements.
- You can also do a Master of Science by thesis and coursework or by research only in many subject areas.
- If you already have a postgraduate qualification, you might wish to consider doing a PhD in any science subject.
Each school and centre within the Science Faculties has a strong research focus which informs and becomes a part of postgraduate teaching, and is demonstrated in the varied topics our postgraduates are researching.
