Before you apply
When you are applying for admission to a graduate research degree at Melbourne, completing the application form is one of the final stages in the process.
Before you start the application process, you need to determine the research topic you want to explore and find out which University of Melbourne Faculty or Graduate School can best accommodate your research interests and project.
It is essential to make contact with your prospective Faculty/Graduate School and/or academic department prior to submitting a formal application. Each Faculty/Graduate School has its own processes, supporting documentation and course entry requirements so you should ensure that you understand and follow the ones that apply to you.
You may need to identify a potential supervisor. You will work under the guidance of a supervisor throughout the duration of your research degree. You can identify potential supervisors in two ways:
- Contact the Faculty or Graduate School that best meets your research interest
- Through the Find an Expert website (not all researchers listed are available for supervision)
You will also need to find out about the University’s minimum entry requirements.
