Course overview

The Australian National University provides MPhil students with a vibrant research community and outstanding program support. The Crawford MPhil program comprises offerings from three of the School's Departments: the Arndt-Corden Department of Economics (ACDE), the Department of Policy and Governance (POGO) and the Department of Resources, Environment and Development (READ). The degree equips individuals with the skills needed to research, investigate, and develop new knowledge in public policy, applied economics, public administration, and resources, environment and development. As an MPhil student you will work with increased independence, under the direction of a supervisory panel of experts in the field. Your research will make an original and important contribution to human knowledge, research and development. MPhil students should aim to start their degree at the start of the calendar year.
