This degree will provide you with the foundation research skills that will support your future career as a scientist or researcher.

 

Specifically, you will develop:

• communication skills
• critical thinking capability
• advanced knowledge within your chosen discipline
• knowledge of research practice and skills
• research independence and capacity for self-directed learning.

 

Research experience is required for most academic and research positions, and increasingly for positions in other sectors.
