关于课程
This two-year, full-time coursework masters develops advanced knowledge in astronomy and astrophysics with flexible course choices tailored to student interests. You study core areas such as stars, galaxies and cosmology, plus options including observational techniques, instrumentation, computing and planetary science. Many courses include hands-on or research-focused components, including telescope data analysis and modelling, to build practical capability alongside theory.
你可能学到什么
You will build specialist expertise in modern astrophysics and the tools used by researchers and industry, including computational methods, data analysis and observational techniques. The program aims to strengthen problem-solving and quantitative reasoning through advanced coursework, while also developing transferable skills such as scientific communication, teamwork and project management. A research project or literature project provides experience in independent investigation.
职业成果
Graduates can pursue roles in astronomy-related research, observatories and space-science organisations, or apply strong quantitative and computing skills in other sectors. Typical pathways include data science and analytics, scientific software development, modelling and simulation, instrumentation/engineering support, and technical consulting. The program also provides preparation for further research training, including higher degrees, for those aiming for academic or research careers.
Entry requirements
Applicants need a recognised Bachelor degree (or equivalent) with a minimum GPA of 5.0/7.0 overall and across at least eight cognate-discipline courses. They must also have completed at least two undergraduate second-year Physics courses and one second-year Mathematics course. A strong background equivalent to second-year quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics and electromagnetism, plus mathematics at least at ANU MATH2305 level, is expected.
