Master of Philosophy (Electrical and Computer Engineering) in Bentley Australia | Curtin University

The Master of Philosophy program is designed to extend knowledge beyond undergraduate honors or postgraduate diploma qualifications, with a research thesis as its final outcome. After earning this research-based master's degree, you become eligible to apply for admission to a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) program.

Research-focused advanced degrees distinguish themselves from other postgraduate programs by requiring that research constitutes at least two-thirds of the curriculum. While some coursework may be necessary, your primary focus will be developing a thesis under the mentorship of a supervisor and associate supervisor(s). The examiners must judge your thesis to make a significant original contribution to any field of knowledge, whether through new discoveries, theoretical developments, or creative reinterpretations of existing information and concepts. Additionally, it should showcase your ability to plan, execute, and finalize independent research projects.
