Requisite map

Overview

This program provides doctoral (PhD) students with the opportunity to focus on developing knowledge and expertise in their chosen discipline, as well as developing professional skills that will support their career ambitions.

Each student's research will be supported by the development of a range of skills that will help them to become more efficient researchers, ultimately improving the quality of the research and developing generic/transferable skills of value to prospective employers.

This program is also applicable to students studying externally.

Structure

Coursework component

You must undertake and pass two coursework units, which will be marked to a pass grade only marking schema. It is recommended that one of these units be completed prior to confirmation. In consultation with your supervisor/s, you choose two units from the following list. You are encouraged to choose at least one unit which is outside of your chosen field of study to provide a breadth of knowledge.

Notes

Program requirements

All research students will be required to undertake compulsory training in the following areas:

Monash Graduate Research Induction (online)
Research Integrity (online)
Faculty induction, including occupational health and safety (where required).
