If you are a Masters by coursework student or graduate, the Graduate Certificate in Business Research offers a clear pathway to gaining entry into a research higher degree program.

The Graduate Certificate consists of four courses, covering research concepts, design and methodology.

The program provides an appropriate qualification and research training for students wishing to pursue a HDR but do not meet the usual entry requirements of a research-based Masters or Honours qualification.

The program ensures that students undertaking higher studies will have developed the necessary research skills.

The Graduate Certificate also serves as a gauge for both students and the University to assess the candidate’s potential suitability for higher research degree studies, and gives both student and potential supervisors the opportunity to more fully develop proposed research topics.
