What will I learn?

The Graduate Diploma of Research Studies in Engineering is an 80 credit point program that provides an alternative route for entry into a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) or a Master of Philosophy (MPhil) program for applicants who do not possess the required qualifications for direct admission. Graduates of this program will be able to plan and conduct research in their relevant field of study, and therefore will be well-placed for positions in the private, not for profit and public sectors. In addition, graduates will be able to progress to higher degree by research programs, thereby preparing them for high level research careers.
