The School is one of the leading schools in Surveying and Spatial Information Systems in Australia. It is one of only two such Schools in the Group of Eight (Go8) Universities, and it has an above-average success rate in attracting funding from competitive research funding bodies, such as the Australian Research Council. Its graduates over the past 40 years are leaders in research, academia and industry, both in Australia and overseas. At the postgraduate level there are strong PhD research and course work programs at both the Master's and Graduate Diploma. The new Federal Government-supported Cooperative Research Centre in Spatial Information has a major presence on the UNSW campus and there is very strong relationship between it and the School.
Admission is available to students with a first degree or equivalent from a recognised tertiary institution in any relevant field together with evidence of a capacity to achieve credit level or better grades consistently. Professional experience is also considered in selecting applicants.
Buildings and urban environments represent a major source of human impact on natural ecosystems and sustainable development has now become a major concern of urban policy and development. There is an increased demand for built environment and related professionals to develop knowledge and skills appropriate to sustainable development, and an expansion of specialised career opportunities in both the public and private sector.
The program is an advanced interdisciplinary coursework program which provides opportunities for graduates from a wide range of backgrounds (eg: architecture, landscape architecture, urban planning, building, property development, civil engineering, etc.) to improve their knowledge and skills in the application of the principles of sustainable development to the planning, design, construction and management of buildings and the urban environment. While approached from an international perspective, the program places special emphasis on the rapidly developing South East Asian region. The program is available to suitably qualified local and international students and provides opportunities for full-time or part-time study.
To be accepted for admission into the program students are typically expected to have a Bachelor degree with a good pass in a related, but not necessarily directly relevant discipline to their chosen area of study. Due to the diverse nature of the disciplines within the program, details of acceptable disciplines considered for admission are shown in relevant plan pages in the Handbook. A 'good pass' is considered to be a weighted average mark of 55-64. However, particular disciplines within Science may have additional entry requirements due to the competitive nature of some disciplines and the number of research places available within a School.
The purpose of the Graduate Diploma (Research) is to provide specialised knowledge and research training in disciplines within the Faculty of Science. It can be used as a higher degree qualifying program (for students who do not meet criteria for direct entry to Honours or MSc/PhD programs), to upgrade existing qualifications or to develop expertise in a different but related disciplinary area from that of the first degree. Students who qualify to enrol in the Honours program would generally be expected to do so rather than enrol in this Graduate Diploma (Research) program.
As part of the program students are expected to complete disciplinary coursework of 18-24 UOC and a significant independent research project of 24-30 UOC. As the Faculty has a diverse range of disciplines the exact proportion of research-based work and coursework may differ by School. Students should refer to the plan pages in this Handbook entry for details of the requirement for their chosen discipline.
In addition to conducting research and coursework students will also be expected to undertake Occupational Health & Safety (OH&S) training, attend and present seminars, write a literature review, and write a thesis.
For postgraduate study, you are generally required to have completed undergraduate studies at a university-type institution. You can find out the exact academic entry requirements for your program in the ‘Coursework program’ section of the international student guide for postgraduates.
This program involves a minimum of 1.5 years full-time study. Students undertake supervised research leading to the production of the thesis.
A candidate for the degree shall have been awarded an appropriate degree of Bachelor from the University of New South Wales or a qualification considered equivalent from another university or tertiary institution at a level acceptable to the Committee.
An applicant who submits evidence of such other academic or professional attainments as may be approved by the Committee may be permitted to enrol for the degree.
When the Committee is not satisfied with the qualifications submitted by an applicant the Committee may require the applicant, before being permitted to enrol, to undergo such examination or carry out such work as the Committee may prescribe.
This is the main Masters level research program for postgraduate students in the Faculty of Medicine. Candidates must demonstrate ability to undertake research by the submission of a thesis embodying the results of an original investigation. The program may be undertaken either with or without supervision.
Admission to the Master of Risk Management is based on relevant academic qualifications. Students require a recognised undergraduate degree in a business related program with a credit average overall as determined by the Australian School of Business.
The Master of Risk Management (MRM) is an integrated program providing up-to-date knowledge and skills in the management of a broad spectrum of risks that organisations are confronted with in the context of the fast changing, increasingly global business environment.
The program helps students develop a broad perspective on risks and their management. It aims to extend students’ knowledge on the use of risk analysis and decision tools and their applications in practice across a range of fields. Learning about risks, pointing to limitations of current risk models and challenging students to think of novel approaches to manage risks in complex systems are key aspects of the degree.
For postgraduate study, you are generally required to have completed undergraduate studies at a university-type institution. You can find out the exact academic entry requirements for your program in the ‘Coursework program’ section of the international student guide for postgraduates.
Reproductive medicine is an expanding field. It is at the forefront of emerging medico-scientific technology offering hope to many needy couples, and career opportunities to those with demonstrable skills and knowledge. Increasing numbers of medical practitioners are developing special interests in this area - particularly GPs, family planning practitioners and specialist gynaecologists working in menopause and infertility. In addition there are similar specialisations emerging in nursing and counselling, and amongst biological scientists.
