About the course
The Master of Philosophy (MPhil) is a higher degree by research completed solely through an independent research project. Over typically two years full-time (or part-time equivalent), you work closely with a supervisory team and demonstrate advanced research capability through a substantial thesis or a creative portfolio with exegesis. Projects for this course sit within the broad area of mathematical and data sciences at Masters level in Sciences. The programme advances scientific inquiry through supervised laboratory or field research, data analysis, and thesis-based discovery.
Career outcome
This MPhil develops advanced research capability for roles that involve designing and completing complex investigations and communicating findings to specialist and non-specialist audiences. Graduates may pursue research-focused careers across universities, industry, community organisations and government, and it can provide a pathway to doctoral study (PhD). It supports professional practice where evidence-based decision-making and original inquiry are central in mathematical and data sciences at Masters level in Sciences.
