This program is for those who are interested in post-graduate training in Earth Sciences which will lead to a professional career in science. It is also designed for students who have little or no undergraduate training in Earth Sciences. Students must complete 4 courses (representing 50% of the final mark) and a 6 month research project. Courses must include "Plate Tectonics and Mantle Dynamics", and three other courses offered within the program (see courses below). This graduate degree by coursework attracts fees.The information published on the Study at ANU 2009 website applies to the 2009 academic year only.
