The research proposal is the starting point for your thesis. It should include a brief introduction and conclusion, and the following outline: 1. The specific area of your intended research, with a clear title Here are some guidelines to help you develop a proposal for the Creative Writing graduate research program.
| |
Please include a sample of your written work typically your Honours or masters thesis, or a recent essay or paper that you think demonstrates your research and writing abilities. Please provide a very brief explanation of the context, ie. whether this is a chapter from your thesis, or a 4th year essay, or a paper writing in a particular context.

The creative PhD at the University of Melbourne is developed and marked as a single thesis, with two major elements: a dissertation and a creative work.
Each part usually contributes 50% to the overall word count. It is possible to increase the dissertation above 50%, but the creative work cannot be more than 50%.
One way to understand the unity of the creative PhD thesis is to consider that there is one overarching research question or hypothesis, which is approached within the thesis in two different manners, a scholarly one and a creative one.
The dissertation is not an exegesis. The dissertation does not offer a commentary on the creative processes or the intentions of the writer. The dissertation is intended to stand independently as a scholarly work making an original contribution to its field or discipline. In creative writing, this field is often interdisciplinary, but it can be characterised as a discipline interested in writerly questions, that is questions that take into account creativity, creative processes, the decision-making that goes into a creative text, cultural and technological influences on writing, questions of genre boundaries (including emerging genres, hybrid genres), and questions that address issues in conceiving of writing as a craft. This is a broad description and it is not exhaustive, but it does indicate that most dissertations are investigating aspects of the act of writing.
In your proposal you should make it clear what your research question is, and how this question fits with or responds to an ongoing critical discourse. You should identify the fields or disciplines you will draw upon, what models of analysis you will adopt, and what critical and creative texts you wish to discuss in your dissertation.
The creative work will need to be articulated in your proposal with some detail, understanding that as with all creative works there will be room for re-considerations and re-drafting. You should show how your creative work addresses or arises from your research question.
Your proposal should include an indicative list of the texts you will consult.

Frequently Asked Questions
The University of Melbourne is committed to creating a safe, inclusive and respectful community, preventing inappropriate behaviours and better supporting people affected by them. The relationship between graduate researchers and their supervisors is one that is potentially vulnerable to inappropriate conduct, given the personal and individual nature of supervision, and the power imbalance that exists between graduate researchers and supervisors. This course is designed to look at supervisor/graduate researcher relationships, exploring and discussing specific scenarios. These scenarios focus on the need for respect in supervision, highlighting the power imbalance in these relationships and the importance of maintaining personal boundaries. This session will also provide supervisors with the resources needed to deal with an incident if they witness or become aware of inappropriate behaviour.
If you are interested in the course you can enrol for an upcoming event session via TrainME – Zoom and In-person options available.

For an overview on our Masters and Honours study options, tune in to our BioSciences Masters and Honours Information Day on Tuesday 28 September 2021– you'll hear from course coordinators about the program structure and available projects within the School of BioSciences in 2022. This event will be held online.
You should review the supervisors and projects available within either the School of BioSciences or the School of Agriculture, Food and Ecosystem Sciences and decide on an area of research that interests you. While supervisors have been placed into broad research themes, all engage in interdisciplinary approaches across multiple themes.
School of Agriculture, Food and Ecosystem Sciences
Before contacting a potential supervisor, look carefully at the type of research they do. Read through:
Approach potential supervisors in research areas that interest you and discuss projects on offer. When you email a potential supervisor, please include your Statement of Results – you can find these in your Results page in my.unimelb. Arrange a time to meet on Zoom or in person when the opportunity is available.
Most supervisors within the School of BioSciences take on only one or two students per year, so our intake is competitive and places are limited.
Take time to discuss the available projects; it is important that you choose an area of research that interests you.
Once you have identified supervisors and projects, fill out the MSc and Hons supervision form (DOCX 71.8 KB) and include this in your MSc/Hons application. For the most rapid admission, have the supervisor(s) sign the form.
It may be that some potential supervisors cannot make a commitment at this time point. You may therefore include several potential supervisors.
Successful applicants will be notified in December, and all applicants will be advised of the outcomes of their applications by the end of January.
In some cases, particularly if external partners are involved, negotiations for projects can continue and additional offers will be made until the end of February. Some supervisors may also offer a project that has a mid-year start date, as this better suits the fieldwork requirement for the research.

This information is provided for our joint phd candidates who have been admitted to a joint degree across two institutions. being enrolled in a joint phd means that you are in a unique position to benefit from the expertise, supervision and experiences at two separate institutions and often across two continents. it is your and your supervisors’ responsibility to ensure that you are meeting the requirements of both universities in which you are enrolled., expectations.
As a joint PhD candidate at the University of Melbourne, we expect that you will:
International joint PhD candidates should follow these instructions to complete your online acceptance agreement once you receive your offer.
As a joint PhD candidate, it is important that you recognise the University of Melbourne and your partner institution(s) in all your research publications, presentations, campaigns, and other communications that are directly linked to your PhD research. If you are unsure how best to do this then please consult with your supervisors and/or IRTG Coordinator.
Individual Graduate Researcher Agreements (IGRAs) represent the contract which is signed between you, your supervisors and both institutions confirming details of your joint PhD candidature. Your IGRA will clarify:
Your IGRA should be completed prior to your commencement, and no later than three months after you start. Your IGRA will be administered by your home institution and the relevant IRTG coordinator/s will assist you in obtaining the necessary signatures from both institutions.
As a joint PhD candidate, it is important to ensure that:
Details of any supervisors from a partner institution must be provided to the faculty graduate research administrator on the External Supervisor Record (Joint Award) so they can be recorded as currently acting as an external supervisor.
More information about working with supervisors is available here .
Your progress must be regularly reviewed by an Advisory Committee. More details about these processes at the University of Melbourne are available on the Graduate Research Hub 'Being a candidate' page .
If the partner institution has a similar progress review process, then you don’t necessarily have to do both. If the timing is similar, you may be able to complete one of the reporting processes and provide the documentation and outcome of that review to the other institution for their record keeping purposes. For example, you can download a pdf copy of a review completed on the University of Melbourne’s Candidature Management System and forward this to the relevant administrator at the partner institution. Instructions for this are Candidature management system FAQs page .
For a partner institution process to be accepted at the University of Melbourne, supervisors from both Institutions must be involved in the discussion of progress to date. For Confirmation of candidature , there must be a documented assessment that your research project has been clearly defined and can feasibly be completed within the agreed timeframe as well as an assessment of your progress to date. Confirmation should also provide you with an opportunity to demonstrate that you have the written and oral presentation skills appropriate to graduate research study.
You should contact your faculty if you have questions about progress review processes.
The Graduate Research Hub offers a number of resources to assist you when you are experiencing difficulties during your candidature. If your concerns are associated with a partner institution, you should contact your IRTG coordinator who may be able to assist and/or connect you with the relevant person.
Study Away refers to a period of time for which you are approved to undertake research-related activities away from the University of Melbourne. The University of Melbourne has an obligation to ensure all our students are in safe learning environments and so we need to know when you are not expected to be on campus in Melbourne.
As a joint PhD candidate, if you commence at the partner institution, a Study Away request will need to be completed at the time of your enrolment, and then again for subsequent periods at the partner institution. More information on submitting a Study Away request is available here . You can select the Study Away reason of ‘studying at joint PhD partner institution’ in the form.
Circumstances may arise that mean you are unable to work on your research for a period of time. In consultation with your supervisors at both institutions, you should submit your Leave of Absence request at the institution where you are currently located. If you are studying in Melbourne and require a Leave of Absence, further information is available here . It is important to ensure that you and/or your supervisors forward any confirmation of Leave of Absence periods to the administrators at your partner institution to ensure that the leave is recorded and accounted for at both institutions, allowing for adjustment of progress review and thesis submission dates.
All projects requiring the use of human participants, animals, genetically modified organisms, or hazardous biological agents must be approved before the work begins. In most circumstances, you will need to submit ethics applications to both the University of Melbourne and your partner institution for separate consideration and approval for the research to be included in your thesis, regardless of where the research takes place.
For a joint award, the University of Melbourne process is to submit an application via Infonetica . If you are aware of the process or have already started an application you can log in directly to the Infonetica system . Please note that you will need to reach out to the partner institution for advice on their ethics process.
More information on the University of Melbourne processes can be found via the below links:
Speak to your supervisor/s or administrators at your partner institution for information on how to submit ethics applications there. Every institution has different systems.
If your home institution is another Australian University, and you have approved ethics applications from that institution, these can be registered with the University of Melbourne. We do not notify the other institution.
Your examination will be carried out in a manner that meets the requirements of both universities as stated in your IGRA. If you have any questions you should consult with your supervisors. When you are ready to submit your thesis to Melbourne, you can find general information about the submission and examination process here .

MBA and EMBA students from RMIT’s Graduate School of Business and Law visited Haining and Hangzhou in collaboration with Zhejiang University International Business School (ZIBS).
The inaugural tour, which focused on innovation, sustainability and cross-cultural intelligence, saw the students visit key leading companies in China such as e-commerce and technology giant, Alibaba; electric vehicle manufacturer, Geely; bio-tech start-up platform, BioClub; eco-manufacturing sports sock producer, Future Stitch; and the start-up incubator of ZIBS, Zheya.
The students were also invited to a joint class with ZIBS international MBA students on corporate responsibility and ethics, and a Youth Dialogue led by Professor Shenglin Ben, ZIBS Dean and former HSBC and JP Morgan chief executive.
During the tour, students were immersed in rich cultural experiences, including tea tastings, calligraphy, visits to cultural towns of Wuzhen, Nanguanxiang, and the Impression Westlake Show.
EMBA student, Nikita Shulin, said the experience stood out as a benchmark for cultural study tours.
“The cultural experiences, consisting of both historical landmarks and an abundance of exceptional cuisine, allowed us to enhance our understanding of China's rich history, traditions, and way of life,” he said.
“The business part of this visit to China presented us with the opportunity to visit giant global corporations, helping us to expand our professional network, build strong relationships, and discover how businesses in China operate.”
In addition to networking with Australian alumni and business leaders, and executives in key industries, students were given opportunities to network with local MBA students.
Laura Mulherin, an EMBA student, said the trip was a wonderful mix of culture and high-quality business visits.
“It was terrific meeting and spending time with the ZIBS students, as well as all the other generous and friendly people we met,” she said.
This trip was a fabulous learning opportunity, and I feel I have a better understanding of Chinese culture and the business environment from our short visit.
Associate Professor Ling Mei Cong, Deputy Dean of Learning and Teaching in the Graduate School of Business and Law, said it was a privilege for her to lead the tour to China.
“The tour is an excellent opportunity for our students to develop a global mindset and witness firsthand how emerging global brands in China grow, delving deep into their innovation and sustainability strategies,” she said.
“It enables them to critically analyse how these companies build their ecosystems to embrace global opportunities and address challenges such as those brought by climate change, digital transformation, and cultural barriers.”
This tour was the first activity since RMIT and ZIBS signed an MOU last year, and the College of Business and Law look forward to hosting students from China later this year.
