About the course

Enrolment in a master's by research degree involves the independent investigation of a research problem that has been formulated by you as the student. It is expected that the research you undertake will make a contribution to the discipline in which you are enrolled by applying, critiquing, analysing or interpreting that knowledge in ways that facilitate pathways for further learning. You will be supported in your research by a supervisory team. You will develop a studio research project that results in a body of creative or visual works with accompanying written and visual documentation.

Career outcome

Graduates may pursue careers as independent artists and creative practitioners, developing a sustained studio practice and exhibiting new work. The degree also supports pathways into roles across galleries, museums and arts organisations, including curatorial and project work, arts administration and education contexts.

Preparing graduates for advanced professional, specialist, and leadership roles in the discipline.
