Supported by an expert supervisory team, you'll
develop advanced analytical, project management
and communication skills, as well as the ability to work
independently on complex problems.
PhD/MPhil admission requirements
Approval for admission to a PhD/MPhil requires an
applicant to demonstrate that they have sufficient
background and experience in independent supervised
research to successfully complete the course, and for
the University to ensure that appropriate supervision
and resourcing are available. Applicants are required to
demonstrate that they have met the requirements of
the University Policy on Adequate Research Preparation
(uwa.edu.au/policy) and any other requirements for
admission of the University, and
(a) have a bachelor’s degree of this University or
equivalent qualification;
or
(b) (i) have previously undertaken work, of a sufficiently
high standard, towards a higher degree by
research in this or another approved institution
but not have submitted it for any degree; and
(ii) have completed an appropriate PhD/MPhil
research proposal. A student who wishes to
undertake a PhD/MPhil in the field of creative
writing must, in addition, submit a substantial
folio of published creative work, normally in the
form of one or more books. Prior to enrolment,
all applicants are required to demonstrate
that they have met the University’s English

undergraduate and postgraduate courses, although some
postgraduate courses have a higher English language
requirement.
