Master of Arts Research Training

The Master of Arts (Research Training) (course code A7001) is a graduate research degree which can be undertaken following completion of a regular three-year undergraduate degree. It is also an appropriate entry point into graduate research for prospective candidates with extensive industry experience or non-traditional research outputs who may not meet traditional PhD admission requirements. The course provides students with the opportunity for more specialised, in-depth research training in a discipline or on an interdisciplinary topic, and opportunities to translate research for a particular professional context. Students complete a combination of coursework and research in their chosen humanities and social sciences discipline, undertaking substantial independent research on their chosen topic while supported by a minimum of two expert academic supervisors from the Faculty of Arts.
