Research degrees
Master of Engineering Science by Research.
The Master of Engineering Science is the initial postgraduate research degree offered by the Department. Candidates commencing this degree often convert to the Doctor of Philosophy degree after one year of study.
Project topics are available at any time in any of our main areas of
research
. Electrical engineering is among the most rapidly developing areas of knowledge. The range of potential research topics changes frequently and so you are encouraged to contact the department's postgraduate affairs director by email at: ecse.graduatestudies@eng.monash.edu.au.
The Master of Engineering Science is usually completed by
research
only at the Clayton Campus. Under exceptional circumstances the programme may be conducted by external candidature. Entry to this degree requires evidence that a candidate has (a) a university honours degree in engineering or (b) a university pass degree in engineering or similar degree plus honours-equivalent experience appropriate to the field of study.
Doctor of Philosophy.
The Doctor of Philosophy is currently the highest degree offered by the Department.

Doctoral Information Handbook
The Doctor of Philosophy (PhD.) degree is awarded for a thesis in which the candidate demonstrates that he/she has made a substantial contribution to knowledge, based on
research
that he/she has undertaken at the University. The award of this degree is generally accepted as showing that the candidate is capable of carrying out unsupervised research. This program of work takes a minimum of three years for a holder of a Bachelor's degree or two years for a Master's degree.
Coursework and Professional Enrichment
A number of
postgraduate units are offered. Undergraduate units are also available to those undertaking Graduate Certificates and Postgraduate Diplomas.
The principal aim of the course is to enable currently practicing engineers and scientist to renew their professional qualifications in response to rapid changes in biomedical and associated technology. It is also intended to permit recent graduates, usually from other universities, to enhance their first qualification with studies in biomedical engineering to improve their prospects in this area of sustained employment growth.
The course will permit mature students to select units which suit their personal and professional needs as they develop from time to time and in so doing to accumulate credit towards awards on a flexible timetable. Single unit enrolment is available in support of this.

degree. As the course is intended to be a professional
development program there is no maximum duration for
completion of studies.
