Specialisation

About this specialisation

Good quality research makes an important contribution to public health. The Research Methods specialisation is designed for students who want to gain a good understanding of the key research methods relevant to public health and to gain experience in applying these methods.

Graduate opportunities

Specialisations allow students to investigate an area of interest relevant to their specific interests, professional practice or area of expertise. To meet the requirements for this specialisation, in addition to completing the core units, students must complete at least 18 credit points of relevant elective units, and a capstone or equivalent unit on a topic related to the specialisation. The remaining 12 credit points can be completed with elective units of the student’s choice.
