Overview

The Education PhD thesis at University of Melbourne demonstrates authority in the candidate's field and shows evidence of command of knowledge in relevant fields.

Features

It shows that the candidate has a thorough grasp of the appropriate methodological techniques and an awareness of their limitations.

The thesis also makes a distinct contribution to knowledge, which rests on its originality of approach and / or interpretation of the findings, and, in some cases, the discovery of new facts.

Programme Structure

Curriculum:

Additionally, the thesis demonstrates an ability to communicate research findings effectively in the professional arena and in an international context.

It is a careful, rigorous, and sustained piece of work demonstrating that a research 'apprenticeship' is complete and that the holder is admitted to the community of scholars in the discipline.

In scope, the PhD thesis differs from a research Masters thesis chiefly by its deeper and more comprehensive treatment of the chosen subject.

It is written succinctly, in English, unless approval has been given for the thesis to be written in a language other than English.
