| الملخص: | Final report from a project that aimed to illuminate the poorly understood research education components of coursework masters programs. With the substantial increase in enrolments in coursework masters and with a growing number of applicants seeking PhD entry and scholarships in Australia with qualifications other than Honours this project examines the extent to which a coursework masters that includes a research project provides effective, supportable entry to a research program in Australia. Given the plethora of Masters programs with extremes of variability e.g. one to two years fulltime in length, and with a research project worth less than a quarter of the total credit to those worth up to one half, it is critical that we understand this variability and what it means for students, institutions and funding bodies. The project specifically addresses the ALTC priority of research and development that focuses on issues of emerging and continuing importance, critical in light of the changing demographic of students in graduate education. |
