• Environmental analysis (air, soil and water quality, environmental contamination, biosolids, environmental toxicology)
• Occupational health and safety (open systems research, management and governance, risk management)
• Physical and materials chemistry (organic and inorganic synthesis, colloidal chemistry, functional surfaces, micro- and nano-technologies, nano-biotechnology, electrochemistry, heterogeneous catalysis, photocatalysis).
• This masters degree may be undertaken in a project or thesis mode.
• RMIT's primary research activities are conducted within the Centre for Advanced Materials and Industrial Chemistry.

The School of Science's researchers have a demonstrated record of success in collaborations, funding and research publications.
You will work with researchers who are past and present winners of ARC Future Fellowships and DECRA’s, the AGR Matthey Gold medal for outstanding contribution in the field of applied gold chemistry, the RK Murphy Medal for Industrial Chemistry, the Silver Jubilee Medal of the Chromatographic Society, London, the CLRI Padmabhushan Dr Y Nayudamma Chemcon Distinguished Speaker Award (awarded by the Indian Institute of Chemical Engineers).

The majority of research staff are Members and Fellows of professional societies including: the Australian Academy of Technological Sciences and Engineering, the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), UK, and the Royal Australian Chemical Institute (RACI).

In the 2015 Excellence in Research for Australia assessments we were ranked at ‘well above world standard’ for physical chemistry and ‘above world standard’ for analytical chemistry.

RMIT's Bachelor of Science offers you the flexibility and choice to complete a degree tailored to your interests.

With major and minor options that span the breadth of physical and natural sciences and allied disciplines, this science degree is embedded with Industry Partnered Learning and focuses on skills development to support your future science career.

Your science degree begins with a suite of introductory subjects in which you will learn and explore core science concepts across physical, life, data and mathematical science disciplines and develop and strengthen key scientific and transferable skills, providing a transformative learning experience that will underpin your future studies and careers.

You can then choose your areas in which to specialise from a suite of complementary majors and minors across the breadth of sciences, including:

• Biological Sciences
• Biotechnology
• Chemistry
• Food Science and Technology
• Mathematics
• Nutrition Science
• Physics
• Statistics.

These majors can be complemented by an extensive choice of generalist minors within these and additional areas, offering further flexibility or the opportunity for further specialisation.

This degree will stimulate your critical thinking and problem-solving skills to help you to be competitive across all science-led disciplines.

Further develop your creative practice and hone your photography skills in this practical, industry-led diploma.

In the Diploma of Photography and Digital Imaging, you will have the opportunity to further develop your artistic practice and hone your creative skills. 

Designed to build practical and highly transferrable skills across a range of industry contexts, including commercial, advertising, documentary, editorial, institutional and fine art photography, this qualification will teach you to:

• Interpret photo imaging assignment briefs
• Consult with clients to refine objectives of photo imaging assignments
• Select the appropriate tools to capture images, including types of camera, image recording media, lighting, post-capture processing and outputs
• Work from a studio or in a range of locations
• Employ aesthetic, conceptual, compositional and technical skills to realise photo imaging outcomes, and 
• Utilise a range of traditional, contemporary and emergent technologies in the capture, preparation and distribution of images.

As a graduate of this diploma, you will have a sound theoretical and practical knowledge base, and the skills to use a range of specialised and technical skills to plan, execute and evaluate photography and photo imaging services.

In today’s visually sophisticated but increasingly competitive and fragmented market, it is imperative for successful photographers to demonstrate a distinctive visual voice.

This honours degree will provide you with the advanced knowledge and skills to effectively adapt to various ways of thinking and making photographic images. You will be guided through personalised mentorship and individual supervision, as you are introduced to practice-led research and research methodologies. Through intensive studio-based research and workshop practice, you will develop creative autonomy and a critical and ethical understanding of photography that will allow you to make significant cultural contributions.

The Bachelor of Arts (Photography) (Honours) is designed for students who have successfully completed a three-year degree in photography, and who wish to undertake a further year of study to focus exclusively on an individual project.

The degree will also appeal to commercial photographers, photographers with commissioned practices (such as advertising, editorial or fashion photographers), photojournalists, socially-engaged practitioners, artists, designers, and other creative industry professionals seeking a more advanced studio practice in photography.

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.

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.

Are you ready to undertake hands-on substantial projects on specific research-relevant topics?

This honours degree combines a laboratory and studio model of study with state-of-the-art resources to help you demonstrate your ability and establish your reputation and future career.

You will study the big issues in contemporary media and communication, expand on your abilities and further investigate your specialisation using sophisticated research and project skills. You will demonstrate your advanced conceptual abilities through project outcomes, examined by key industry and academic leaders.

This honours degree is the only one of its kind in Australia, allowing you to work with students from other disciplines in dedicated 24-hour access studio space (for honours students only).

Studying business in today's ever-changing, globally-connected and technologically-charged world is an exciting prospect.

Are you a disruptor, a potential entrepreneur who sees opportunity at every turn? Perhaps you are a global citizen, connecting with like minds across the world.
