Introduction
This is a specialised research program allowing students to undertake a research project exploring a particular aspect of management.

Course Entry Requirements/Prerequisites
A degree from a recognised Australian tertiary institution, or an equivalent qualification, and a minimum of three years professional experience and or and appropriate honours degree (first or second class). Applicants may enter with qualifications in disciplines other than business, but should, in that case, be prepared to undertake additional units at graduate level to provide them with a broad foundation in commerce.

Duration and Availability
This course is by research and normally requires one to two years full-time or equivalent part-time study.

Course Organisation
Studied as a research degree. The content of the degree should be determined in consultation with the Postgraduate Coordinator, School of Management. Students without prior studies in research methods and statistical data analysis will be required to undertake relevant preparatory units. This will increase the stated course duration.

Additional Course Expenses
Students may be expected to purchase a number of textbooks, readers and other vital study materials. In addition, students may also need to contribute some of the cost of consumables, which varies depending on the area of study.

Special Note
It is a requirement that two-thirds of this course is undertaken by research and only one-third by coursework. Students should not enrol in this research course to receive the Postgraduate Diploma in Business (Management) but rather have undertaken it as a requisite for admission. The Curtin Business School provides facilities and benefits for those studying this course by research, including access to suitable computer facilities, office space, financial assistance to attend appropriate intra or interstate conferences and towards associated research costs.
