This honours degree offers you the opportunity to advance your design process, develop independent practice, and deepen your specialisation in textile design industries.

You will research and examine your design practice within the context of critical, engaged and contemporary textiles systems, and related disciplines. 

This degree is designed as part of the Advanced Fashion and Textiles Design Studios, where you will be immersed in creatively challenging and engaging contemporary practice.

As a graduate, you will be able to demonstrate design strategies that reflect contemporary practice, emerging markets and economies, and materially-led design across and outside the textile and fashion design discipline. This advanced knowledge will deepen your portfolio, and set you up for professional design and design-related roles in industry. 

The degree structure utilises research-enabled subjects and strategies to tap into emergent discipline areas, and offers specific pathways through a project-led model and independently-designed projects in specific industry contexts.

This degree will provide you with the foundation research skills that will support your future career as a scientist or researcher.

• Specifically, you will develop:
• communication skills
• critical thinking capability
• advanced knowledge within your chosen discipline
• knowledge of research practice and skills
• research independence and capacity for self-directed learning.
• Research experience is required for most academic and research positions, and increasingly for positions in other sectors.

In consultation with your discipline honours coordinator and your supervisor, you'll be allocated a project to develop your skills to an advanced level.

Are you interested in industrial design? Would you like to create change? This discipline shapes the world we live in.

Industrial designers have the ability to affect change and create powerful solutions that improve both human and environmental health and wellbeing.

Exploring the trans-disciplinary nature of contemporary industrial design. You'll engage in practical learning through our practice-based design studios, co-creating solutions through a human centred approach to product, service and experience design contexts.

For over 70 year’s industrial design at RMIT has offered aspiring designers ground breaking experiences through technical, theoretical and applied immersions into the diverse and dynamic fields of industrial design practice. Working on real-world problems in industry and community contexts, this hands on educational experience culminates in a year-long honours design research project. 

You will develop a design practice through:

• The design of sustainable products, services and systems
• Design as a mechanism for enabling social reform and cultural enrichment
• Commercial and aesthetically-focused approaches to product, transportation and furniture design
• Technologically and materially mediated interactions and experiences
• The possibilities of form, process and material in response to rapid technological advances
• Operating at the intersections of our digital and material worlds
• Using design as a conduit to address social sustainability, cultural awareness and the wellbeing of clients, users and communities

The Master of Cyber Security aims to equip you with the mathematical, technical and business tools to secure an organisation’s information systems.

Secure systems and networks are a vital responsibility for organisations of all sizes and in our increasingly connected world, it is more important than ever. From the latest internet worm to identity theft, danger is no more than a click away.

You will learn about local area network (LAN) security, cryptography, the Advanced Encryption Standard, RSA, smartcards, biometrics, ethical hacking and information systems risk management.

This degree includes opportunities for cyber security internships with industry organisations, both large and small.

Explore science, environmental governance and sustainability in this highly interactive degree — the only one of its kind in Victoria.

The unique and comprehensive Bachelor of Environmental Science/Bachelor of Environment and Society combines science and social science knowledge, designed to give you all the competencies required to succeed in environmental governance positions, or to become a sustainability leader, and help protect our natural environment.

Through the combination of work in the classroom, the laboratory and the field, you will build an understanding of both scientific and social theory. Through several real-life projects, you will learn to reconsider and apply theoretical concepts to practical problems. You’ll build further skills through industry engagements and work placements.

This double degree has been designed to provide you the opportunity to explore many different career paths through your academic study and experiential learning. Upon graduation, you will be well-equipped to make a positive difference in a wide range of potential careers that will strive to protect precious ecosystems, and help to shape the future of humanity.
