Use your advanced research skills to contribute to new developments in radiotherapy, diagnostic medical procedures and health physics.

This program is assessed by both a research project and the completion of five courses.

The research project is in medical or health physics, and is examined by thesis.

The coursework is vocationally relevant to radiotherapy, diagnostic imaging, radiation protection and health physics, and is available in online mode.

You will complete Research Methods for Sciences in your first semester. Four other courses will be undertaken in subsequent semesters.

The program is accredited by the Australasian College of Physical Scientists and Engineers in Medicine (ACPSEM) as an approved postgraduate qualification forming a compulsory component of the requirements to become a certified medical physicist.

Research activities are conducted within related research institutes and groups including the Applied Electromagnetics and Radiation Physics Research Group.

You will use state-of-the-art equipment and facilities including:

• Brachytherapy Afterloader suite
• Gel dosimetry
• Optical Tomography for 3D Dosimeters
• Anthropomorphic Phantoms
• Radiation Instrumentation Laboratory
• X-ray Microbeam Irradiator
• X-ray microCT

You will also have access to partner organisation facilities including Medical Linear Accelerators, CT & MR Imaging and the Australian Synchrotron.

The Graduate Diploma in Journalism is designed to enhance your undergraduate qualification with focused study in journalism. This one-year diploma sets you up for a career as a journalist by allowing you to explore all forms of contemporary journalism and put modern practice into its legal, ethical and social context. 

As part of the curriculum, you will present and produce live radio news for community radio station RRR and our live-to-air television news program, Newsline, as well as create text and data reports for our publication The City Journal.

You will work individually with our work placement coordinator to find at least one internship as part of your study.

Upon completing this diploma, you will have developed the skills and knowledge necessary for an entry-level position in journalism and in doing so follow in the footsteps of many of Australia’s award-winning journalists.

Learn to be a leader in the classroom, using the latest educational technologies to support your teaching practice.

In the Master of Teaching Practice (Primary Education) you’ll combine hands-on experiences with theoretical learning. Studying in the heart of Melbourne and in local classroom settings, this degree is designed to help you build the skills you need to be an effective and influential teacher, showing you how to provide a positive impact on the lives of primary school children.

The environment faces threats and challenges that include climate change, habitat loss, overpopulation, emerging contaminant and pollution events, and food and water security.

The breadth of these environmental challenges requires a combination of knowledge and skills in chemistry, biology, statistics, research, and earth sciences for an interdisciplinary approach to surmounting these difficulties.

In RMIT's Bachelor of Environmental Science, you will learn about the biogeochemical processes that occur in both natural and degraded environments, and specialise with areas of study like environmental biology, environmental chemistry, geosciences or geospacial sciences.

Over the course of your environmental studies, you will undertake both practical and industry-relevant activities, where you will:

• Gain considerable hands-on experience with equipment, both in the laboratory and in the field
• Undertake frequent field trips during the second and third year
• Work on collaborative projects with industry, gaining hands-on experience.

These activities involve working in small groups to foster teamwork and a collaborative approach to research and projects.

The Master of Engineering (Robotics and Mechatronics Engineering) prepares you to lead the introduction of new technologies and operating practices in advanced manufacturing and a range of other technical industries including robotics and mechanical systems design, mechatronics and micro- and nano-technology.

You'll study high-demand areas including:

• Advanced mechatronics system design
• Advanced control systems (including process control)
• Imaging systems
• Advanced robotic systems

There is a market demand for engineers with advanced skills such as control and robotics design and the ability to develop and implement new processes in agile manufacturing, ensuring innovations can emanate from all levels of the workforce.

With a focus on project-based and multi-disciplinary learning, you'll develop your professional engineering competencies in project management, teamwork, leadership, problem-solving, communication and research.

Prepare for employment in research-based senior leadership and management positions with a Master of Applied Science (Built Environment).
