RESEARCH PROGRAMS Faculty Research Office The Faculty of Business and Economics Research Office provides a range of student services and seeks to enhance the quality of the postgraduate experience as well as providing information and advice to current and prospective students. If you are considering a research degree, please contact: Faculty Research Office Telephone: +61 3 9905 2483 Email: buseco-research.degrees@monash.edu For more information on research in the faculty and how to apply to undertake a research degree, visit www.buseco.monash.edu.au/research/index.html 5 Master of Philosophy The degree of Master of Philosophy (MPhil) signifies the completion of a course of postgraduate training in research under proper academic supervision, and submission of a thesis that external examiners have declared to be a contribution to knowledge, demonstrating the candidate’s capacity to carry out independent research. While it is not necessary that an MPhil thesis would make a major contribution to the discipline by way of new knowledge (as a PhD would require), an MPhil thesis would be expected to make a contribution to an existing body of knowledge, by applying, clarifying, critiquing or interpreting that knowledge. The principal component of the MPhil is a thesis of up to 50,000 words, embodying the results of a research project. The thesis is written under direct supervision of a member of the academic staff. Together with a supervisor, each candidate is responsible for developing the research program to be followed and should be designed to take no more than 2 years of full-time equivalent candidature. The Master of Philosophy also includes a coursework component, according to the academic discipline, for those students interested in upgrading to the Doctor of Philosophy.

Whether new to the workforce or a seasoned professional, the Faculty of Business and Economics offers graduate programs that can be tailored to your needs. Our coursework programs are offered both on and off campus, with some delivered in a blended mode.
