The Graduate Research School is celebrated for its research intensity involving more than 400 Doctoral and Masters students, who are strongly linked to industry and supported by the University. Research students are active in all disciplinary areas of the Schools encompassing Environmental and Rural Science; Science and Technology; Business and Law.

You can enrol as a higher degree research student at the master and doctoral levels. You will have the necessary support with research training, knowledge transfer, and innovation. We allocate experienced research supervisors to each student to maximise the research training experience, culminating in a high level of original research outputs that contribute to the various discipline areas. The Graduate Research School offers degrees in the following areas: As a first step you should determine your preferred field of study.
