About this program

Bond University's Master of Arts (Coursework) is a one-year degree (three semesters, January, May and September intakes) that lets students combine study across criminology, international relations, communication, public relations and advertising rather than staying in one discipline.

The first semester includes a research and data subject, and every student completes an independent research project, choosing either a major research project of 40 credit points with fewer electives or a shorter 10-credit project plus three electives. The research is set by the student around their own interests. It suits professionals and career changers who want a flexible postgraduate humanities qualification with a real research component, including as preparation for a PhD.
