Doctor of Philosophy Integrated (Health and Medicine)

Course Details

The Doctor of Philosophy Integrated (Health and Medicine) is a four-year research degree which comprises one year of coursework subjects together with a traditional three-year PhD thesis which combines generic research training together with discipline-specific research training into a single degree. The research component is the same as for the three-year PhD program and leads to the production of a single written thesis or compliation of publications. Each PhD candidate usually has two supervisors. We encourage you to identify potential supervisors who match your area of research interest by visiting the Facultys website. We also advise you make contact with a potential supervisor to discuss your project prior to applying for admission. The coursework, which is undertaken in the first year of the degree, comprises research training skills and individual coursework subjects. Research skills are tailored for each faculty, but typically include: research methodology; literature review, critical analysis or laboratory projects; and advanced topics or a minor research project.
