Qualifications: Master of Science
Master of Science (Technology)
Length of Programme: 2 years
Commencement: July 2014
The MSc and MSc (Tech) degrees will add to student’s knowledge of techniques as well as providing training in specialist areas. While developing research skills, students will have the opportunity to contribute to existing areas of research or to begin to develop new areas. Research programmes exist across a wide range of disciplines, supported by the primary research interests of staff which include hydrothermal systems.
The MSc and MSc (Tech) are normally two-year programmes of study which combines taught papers with a research thesis in the second year. The MSc (Tech) includes two compulsory papers on industrial technology and innovation. Students will have the opportunity to undertake research with staff who are leaders in their field and will have the use of world-class laboratory facilities. A 12 month Master of Science degree by thesis research may be available to students who have already completed a qualification such as a Bachelor of Science (Honours) or a Postgraduate Diploma.
An example of a relevant course would be -
Volcanic Geochemistry and Hydrothermal Systems - A study of geochemical approaches and methods to solve various problems in the Earth Sciences including volcanic environments, with particular attention to hydrothermal systems, geothermal energy, and the formation of hydrothermal ore deposits.
