The Master of Philosophy (MPhil) in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences of UNSW Sydney offers the opportunity to gain valuable interdisciplinary research training that meets the needs of twenty-first-century researchers and leaders of society. It consists of three compulsory courses and a 25,000 word research thesis supervised by our academic experts. You will complete 1 common compulsory course, 1 specialisation-specific course and 1 discipline-specific course, each focusing on research training from broad, foundational work through trans-disciplinary study to specialisation. The different MPhil specialisations provide grounding in fields that are unlike traditional “majors”. Instead they are closely aligned with the Faculty’s diverse research strengths, the expertise of its staff, and the employment market. The program is especially suited to individuals with an undergraduate degree who wish to return from the workforce to develop research skills and explore contemporary problems from cross-disciplinary points of view. Successful completion of the degree may qualify for admission to doctoral level research.
Specialisation: Health and Well-being
Health and well-being are recognised as global rights, vital to human flourishing. Yet the dominant paradigms in health research rarely attend to the complex influences of social contexts and meanings. How are the Humanities and Social Sciences seeking to expand our understanding of the contributions of social relationships, poverty, racism and stigma to health and well-being today? What theoretical and methodological innovations are helping to explain the social dynamics of our experiences of and responses to health challenges? This specialisation will prepare you to draw on social and critical frameworks and interdisciplinary research techniques to design ethical, contextual and creative approaches to understanding health and well-being. This degree provides advanced research training opportunities to professionals from a wide variety of backgrounds who are interested in either pursuing higher degree research or enhancing their knowledge and skills in using, informing and conducting research which draws on the humanities and social sciences.
