RESPJ4001 Research Project
This unit forms the core research project component of the Graduate Certificate in Research and has a focus on carrying out a program of research and submitting a significant piece of work for assessment. The unit involves composing a thesis in the discipline area of the student, and depending on the discipline, the thesis may involve constructing an argument, gathering and analysing data, associated field, laboratory, clinical or computer based work. For students working in creative art disciplines, work may involve producing creative writing with an accompanying exegesis, or exegesis plus development and production of a body of creative practical works of art, design or performance.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2026 student contribution amount: $1,185
2026 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $1,185
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
