5 Spanning Disciplines
As international research degrees are based on the creation of knowledge, and the
means of communicating knowledge varies between disciplines, the program accommodates different modes of presentation. In scientific and technical fields, the commonly accepted form of a prolonged period of investigation collated into a prescribed
format of thesis is used. In some cases where candidates publish in recognized high
quality international journals, papers may form the basis of a thesis that provides an
overall global context of the work. In other disciplines such as the performance and
visual arts, other forms are able to be considered, such as performance or exhibition
supported by an exegesis. While topics cover all disciplines, some are constrained
by the availability of qualified international supervisors.
