The Master of Medicine Surgery program at The University of Notre Dame Australia is a postgraduate research qualification aimed at equipping medical professionals with advanced research skills. This intensive program, achievable within 18 months of full-time study, combines coursework with a major research project, concluding with either a thesis or research dissertation. Each candidate receives personalized supervision from an academic expert in their chosen field, who helps develop the research proposal and provides ongoing mentorship throughout the program. The curriculum includes four mandatory research-focused subjects that enhance critical thinking, academic writing abilities, and help shape key aspects of the research project.

For the research component, students conduct an original investigation that makes meaningful contributions to medical knowledge.

Alternatively, the research dissertation builds upon a publishable manuscript and incorporates comprehensive literature review and research outcomes.
