M RES
A Masters by Research program requires students to undertake an original investigation. In comparison to a doctorate however, this investigation is generally more limited in scope and degree of originality.
The work is closely supervised in the early problem formulation stages and whenever a new technique is being used.
The Masters by Research is a research degree comprising 96 Units of Credit.
While the degree is awarded on the basis of a written thesis, some concurrent
coursework studies in research methods and other areas relevant to the chosen
topic may be required depending on individual cases. The aims of such concurrent
coursework are to enhance students' knowledge in the chosen field of research.
