SCOND7001 Research Project
This course will enable students to apply knowledge and skills gained in coursework studies to investigate a question, problem or issue of individual interest in a practical, scholarly and relatively autonomous manner under staff supervision. Students will demonstrate skills to plan, conduct and present a small-scale research study in the form of a thesis. Successful completion of this course is required to qualify for entry to a Doctor of Philosophy program.
Commonwealth supported place (CSP)
A CSP is subsidised by the Australian Government and students pay a contribution amount. Each unit is classified into a band, depending on the study area of the unit (this discipline may be different from the study area of your course).
2025 contribution amount* $6,372
2025 grandfathered contribution amount* $2,990
Grandfathered contribution amount - if you are a continuing student, who commenced your course before 1 January 2021, you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented, for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
* For Clinical Psychology & Professional Pathways bands the unit fee amount is determined by accredited courses. Students in Postgraduate Clinical Psychology, Professional Pathway Psychology or Professional Pathway Social Work accredited courses should refer to the information below.
