The Faculty of Science at Clayton offers a Master of Applied Science program to appropriately qualified graduates who have relevant work experience. A research-based program involving examination of a thesis, plus ancillary coursework as may be prescribed, leads to the MAppSc degree. Inquiries should be directed in the first instance to a head of department. Areas for research include chemistry, mathematics and applied physics.
Water sciences, aquatic biology, applied electro-chemistry, manufacture of synthetic drugs, polymer chemistry and surface chemistry;
Mathematical modelling of physical systems, air quality modelling, complex analysis, business forecasting, applied robust statistics;
Acoustics, particularly propagation of impulsive noise; materials, structure and detection of faults in materials by computerised tomography and other techniques; computer image processing applied to shape analysis, texture aspects of surfaces and monitoring and control.
The Master of Applied Science on the Gippsland campus is completed by a supervised research program leading to a thesis.
Persons interested in enrolling in the program are advised to read the paper on `Procedures for applying for candidature for masters by research' available from the student administration office.
The first stage of the program involves enrolment in the single forty-eight point subject GAS7001 (Introduction to Master of Applied Science). Upon satisfactory completion of this subject, students then enrol in the forty-eight point subject GAS8001 (Master of Applied Science), culminating in presentation of the thesis.
Further details are available from the school's student matters office.
