Pathway to graduate research
A pathway to graduate research (e.g. master's by research, PhD) is available if you** achieve a weighted average mark of at least 75% in the units of this course. On-campus attendance is required for this pathway. This pathway is not available at the point of entry, however if you are commencing at entry level 1 or 2 and interested in this possibility you must make space to pursue the two required units in Part D by restricting the number of units across Part B and Part C accordingly.

If you are commencing at entry level 3 (48 credit points) and interested in the pathway to graduate research, you must achieve a 75% average in your first two units to be eligible. If you are initially enrolled in a specialisation, you will be required to transfer to the general award, Master of Education, in order to complete the pathway to graduate research. 

If you are invited into this pathway,  you must take the following two units:

• EDF5613 Research approaches in education
• EDF5614 Research project in education

** Due to professional accreditation requirements, the research pathway is not available if you are undertaking the inclusive and special education specialisation.
