Research skills typically include research methodology, literature review, critical analysis or laboratory projects, and advanced topics or a minor research project. The individual subjects are normally chosen from options within the Masters by research degrees within the Arts and Humanities discipline, allowing students to obtain deeper content knowledge of their chosen field.<br><br>International students intending to become university researchers and teachers in their home country will benefit from exposure to Australian teaching methods through these subjects.<br><br>The research component is the same as for the three-year PhD program and leads to the production of a written thesis. The thesis, which involves a significant contribution to a field of knowledge, must be no longer than 100,000 words in length. Each PhD candidate has two supervisors appointed by the Faculty.<br><br>In order to progress to the research component, PhD Integrated students must complete the first year with an average of 65%, including 65% in each research training skills subject.
