Course Overview

About This Course

The Master of Arts (Research Training), Southeast University (SEU) partnership pathway (course code A7001), is a joint research degree undertaken in collaboration between Monash University and Southeast University. It is a graduate research degree which can be undertaken following completion of a regular three-year undergraduate degree, and is also an appropriate entry point into graduate research for candidates with extensive industry experience or non-traditional research outputs who may not meet traditional PhD admission requirements. Students complete a combination of coursework and research in a humanities or social sciences discipline, undertaking substantial independent research under joint supervision from Monash and Southeast University academic supervisors.
