The Master of Arts (Research Training) is a postgraduate research program designed for students who have completed a standard three-year bachelor's degree. This program also serves as an ideal pathway into advanced research for professionals with significant industry background or alternative research credentials who might not qualify for direct PhD entry. Students will gain focused, advanced research skills within a specific field or across disciplines, along with chances to apply their findings in practical professional settings.
The curriculum blends structured coursework with independent investigation in humanities or social sciences. You'll conduct extensive self-directed research under the guidance of at least two specialist supervisors. Our faculty comprises more than 500 scholars dedicated to nurturing globally competitive researchers who are driven to produce innovative work and make meaningful societal contributions. A distinguishing feature of our research initiatives is their variety and the caliber of our academic staff, who include some of the world's most respected and motivational research leaders.
