2025 Postgraduate Handbook
The Arts and Social Sciences faculty offers you a suite of postgraduate courses and research areas developed in consultation with leaders in their field.
The handbook provides you with the rules and requirements of your degree and its components – core, selective and elective units, specialisations, and capstone units. It should be read in conjunction with the advice found in your Sydney Student Unit of study selection screens. While online systems will help ensure you meet these rules and requirements, it is also expected that you are familiar with these so you can make informed enrolment decisions accordingly.
Our courses are listed alphabetically as coursework areas: A-D, E-H, I-M, N-Z.
Our higher degree by research courses are:
- Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)
- Master of Philosophy
- Master of Arts (Research)
- Master of Education (Research)
- Master of Fine Arts
