RESEARCH & POSTGRADUATE STUDY
The Faculty of Arts has evolved into a major centre of research and postgraduate
study. Research and postgraduate excellence is reflected in successes
in national competitive research grant applications (more than $4million
between 1998-99), high quality publications and growing enrolments and
completions in postgraduate degrees. The Faculty is internationally regarded
for its excellence in Australasian, Southeast Asian and Post-colonial
studies. Faculty members collaborate with international and national research
bodies and belong to the editorial boards of leading national and international
journals.
Faculty research is organised by the Associate Dean Graduate Studies
and Research, the Faculty Research Committee, the Board of the Institute
of Social Change and Critical Inquiry (ISCCI) and Postgraduate Coordinators
in Academic Programs. Administrative support is provided by the Postgraduate
Support Officer and the Institute's Administrative Officer.
All postgraduate applications must be approved by the Associate Dean
Graduate Studies and Research.

CURRENT RESEARCH AREAS
The Faculty's principal research strengths are reflected in the research
programs of The Institute of
Social Change and Critical Inquiry (ISCCI).
Most of the leading researchers in the Faculty belong to the Institute's
interdisciplinary research programs, its affiliated centre The Canadian
Australian Studies Centre, or to the Centre
for Asia Pacific Transformation Studies (CAPSTRANS). Other researchers
work independently within academic programs. More information on individuals'
research areas can be found on the web-pages of academic programs.
