Introduction
This research course is designed to provide opportunities to obtain a specialist qualification by gaining specific skills and understanding in carrying out independent research work.
Course Entry Requirements/Prerequisites
An honours degree in computer science or postgraduate diploma in computer science at level two or its equivalent.
Duration and Availability
The course is by research and normally requires one to two years of full-time study. The course is also available in part-time mode.
Course Organisation
This course is studied as a research degree. The content of the degree should be determined in consultation with the Postgraduate Coordinator, School of Computing. 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.

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 Computer Science but rather have undertaken it as a requisite for admission.
