Overview

Candidates for the degree of Master of Arts (Research) (MA (Research)) conduct research and write a thesis on an approved topic. All research is done under the supervision of a member of our academic staff.

The Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at Sydney is consistently ranked as one of the world's best places for research in the humanities and social sciences.

The MA (Research) is offered in disciplines ranging across the visual arts and art history, archaeology and classics, diverse languages and their cultures, economics, English language and literature, ancient, medieval and modern history, philosophy, the global political economy and international governance, sociology and cultural studies, media and communications and social work.

If you choose to continue with further research, the MA (Research) offers an internationally recognised pathway to the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD).

As a part of their training, MA (Research) students at Sydney are required to complete some coursework early in their candidature. Students have access to a range of specialist units of study that will develop their research skills.
