Course programme

Units Download course structures and unit outlines for Master of Applied Science (Research) - Engineering This degree consists of coursework, which can be up to one-third of the course, and research, which must be at least two-thirds of the course. The assessed coursework may be in the form of advanced lectures, seminars, reading courses or independent study designed to focus on information retrieval skills. The Faculty also recommends all students undertake a QUT facilitated Research Writing Program. The research component is a program of supervised research and investigation at a level of scientific competence significantly higher than that expected from an undergraduate degree and, typically, a masters thesis does not need to be as substantial as a Doctor of Philosophy thesis. Students undertake a program of research and investigation on a topic approved by the Academic Board. All projects should be sponsored either by outside agencies such as industry, government authorities, or professional organisations, or by the university itself. Getting Started: Choose a topic: Step 1: Identify your discipline and choose a topic Construction Management Quantity Surveying Property Economics Project Management Planning Surveying Step 2: Contact the Science and Engineering Faculty's research degree coordinator. QUT researchers are available to discuss your topic with you to ensure it has the right scope and scale for your preferred research degree. There are also opportunities for you to align your interests with QUT’s major ongoing research programs. Explore research topics.
