Course Details

A Master of Philosophy (MPhil) is an internationally recognised graduate research degree. With guidance from your advisory team, you will undertake a significant research project and complete a 40,000-word thesis and an oral examination. In some circumstances your thesis may involve an alternate format. The MPhil will take you 1.5 to 2 years to complete full time and will enable you to develop advanced knowledge and methodologies. MPhil work is done independently and you will need a strong academic background to apply. You may need to submit a research proposal and other documents to support your application. About 500 MPhil students join UQ each year researching a wide range of topics. Many MPhil candidates choose to continue with their research in order to obtain a PhD.
