This is a one-year degree or equivalent part time study, taught in English, for high-achieving students who have already completed a relevant Bachelor degree. Students initially develop an understanding of ethical research design, practice and analysis within a high performance research setting. This knowledge is then incorporated into an original and independent research project conducted under the supervision of academic staff and/or industry professionals with expertise in the field.

In an increasingly competitive job market, an honours degree will give you an edge over candidates who just have an undergraduate degree. Honours scholarships are available to suitably qualified candidates for 2023 commencement.
