Our learning environment
Read information about the
Research Degrees program
for Australian students.
The structure of the doctoral research program has been designed to ensure that those whose careers involve them in extended travel away from home are not penalised if they miss a week or so of study, and are able to schedule their work commitments around their academic commitments.
Each course is typically conducted across an eight week semester. Classes will be held at convenient times for senior managers. Many units will involve candidates working progressively on an individual basis at the beginning of the course, supplemented by frequent email interaction between all stakeholders - staff and candidates. Connection to the internet will be essential to foster this research and reflection.
Initial work will be followed by intensive group interaction over a compressed time frame - three or four consecutive days which include a weekend - and lead into a series of assignments which test each participant's critical contribution to the field.
For information relating to facilities in overseas locations please contact our partner locations.
The program will be led by senior members of the IGSB staff, augmented by the services of adjunct staff, who are leading academics from our world wide network of academic partnerships.
