HE AHA TE AKO PAERUA? STUDY? Postgraduate study enables you to take your career to the next level, through in-depth study in a particular area of interest It helps you take your prior experience and knowledge, and use your initiative as you research, and contribute to your field of expertise It requires planning, dedication and will take time away from your everyday life, but ultimately your hard work could open the door to new opportunities and greater responsibility HOW DOES IT DIFFER FROM UNDERGRADUATE STUDY? During your undergraduate study, you will have learned many of the skills required to study successfully at postgraduate level However, it is important to realise that postgraduate study requires greater independence, and you’ll need to use your own initiative in completing course work and undertaking research projects.  You’ll generally be expected to have some knowledge and prior experience in your subject area, however postgraduate study can also be used to support a career transition As an example, a person with a science PhD may contemplate an MBA You’ll be supported and encouraged by your supervisors in a range of ways, but in many circumstances, you’ll be in the driving seat when it comes to getting work done Postgraduate study is more strongly focused on theory and research in the discipline, and many postgraduate qualifications have a research component You’ll also be expected to possess a higher level of critical thinking and analysis, show that you read extensively, and can develop your own views, and defend them ARE YOU READY FOR POSTGRADUATE STUDY? Postgraduate study requires time, commitment, and a range of skills beyond those you may have needed as an undergraduate We have provided a series of online tools and resources to help you think about the different aspects of studying at a distance, and to assess your abilities, time commitments and motivations for study Check them out on the Massey website: massey.ac.nz/postgrad FINDING TIME FOR STUDY Studying at university requires a significant time investment Students often comment that balancing their everyday commitments with study requirements can be challenging It is important to carefully consider how many courses you should take, especially when beginning your study.  You should be realistic about the number of courses you can take in a semester and consider all your existing commitments You will need to spend approximately 20 to 24 hours each week for a 30-credit single semester course, or 10 to 12 hours each week for a 30-credit double semester course PATHWAYS TO POSTGRADUATE STUDY Most postgraduate students enter their study already possessing a bachelor’s degree However, if you want to change the direction or focus of your study, you may need to begin with a graduate diploma Master's degrees can be between 12 and 24 month programmes, depending on your entry route, and the degree's credit value They can be mainly coursework, a combination of coursework and a research project or thesis, or a thesis only Doctoral degrees are awarded entirely for research reported in your thesis (PhD) or for a combination of coursework and a thesis (the ‘Named’ doctorates) TYPES OF PROGRAMMES AVAILABLE HONOURS DEGREE Honours degrees are postgraduate qualifications comprising an additional year of study beyond the bachelor’s degree in the discipline Entry to an honours degree requires prior high academic performance in undergraduate degree study Students selected for an honours degree will enrol in the postgraduate degree after completing the undergraduate degree Completing an honours degree may qualify you for doctoral study if your achievement is high enough MASTER’S DEGREE A master’s programme allows you to undertake advanced study – usually on the main subject in your qualifying undergraduate degree Some master's programmes allow you to move into a different discipline from your undergraduate study POSTGRADUATE DIPLOMA A postgraduate diploma builds on your prior academic achievement, and generally takes one year of full-time study to complete It can lead to further study at master's or doctorate level 05 POSTGRADUATE STUDY AT MASSEY IN 2022 DOCTORATE The Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree is the qualification to kick-start your research career It is the highest degree Massey offers and can be acquired in most of the disciplines It may involve external supervisors from a research institute It is Massey’s most supervised, fully researchbased degree A PhD is awarded for a thesis, which is an integrated and coherent report demonstrating your ability to carry out independent research and analysis at an advanced level in a particular field, or an advanced creative-practice work including a substantial written component Your thesis should make an original contribution to knowledge of the subject it focuses upon It will be assessed by three independent examiners in a process that includes thesis assessment reports and an oral examination It normally takes at least three years of full-time study to complete a PhD If you’d prefer to study part-time, you need to allow five to six years to complete the research and writing NAMED DOCTORATES Massey University offers two named doctoral degrees: > Doctor of Clinical Psychology (DClinPsych) > Doctor of Social Work (DSW) These are specially-designed degrees involving high-level study and research They are ideal professional development options for existing and prospective senior managers and leaders Named doctorates comprise one-third course work/practicum and twothirds supervised research In all other respects, including the examination procedure, they’re equivalent to a PhD, especially in the standards of discipline, rigour and scholarship required ENTRY REQUIREMENTS Entry requirements for each programme vary, so it’s best to talk to the team at Massey University to find out what level of postgraduate study is

connect with us on Facebook: facebook.com/MaoriMassey n STACEY HAYWARD Postgraduate Diploma in Māori Resource Development Senior Policy Analyst at the Department of Internal Affairs (DIA) I was always drawn to the environment and the importance of managing natural resources in a sustainable manner for future generations I lived in Papua New Guinea and Solomon Islands as a child Living with those communities I was fascinated with how other indigenous cultures lived in harmony with their environment My family worked in the primary sector for generations, so it seemed logical that I wanted a career in the natural resource and environmental management sector Massey offered the right mix of tertiary education in natural resource management It is also world renowned for its research and tertiary qualifications in agriculture, horticulture and forestry - a big hook for me I really enjoyed my study experience I had plenty of support and found it an enriching and stimulating environment One of the most positive outcomes of my study was learning more about my identity as Māori Having spent a large portion of my young life overseas I missed that opportunity The time I spent studying allowed me to explore and discover more about Māori culture and values The qualifications I obtained at Massey were highly sought after by government departments which can include spending time located in their business For more information about proposals contact: creative.postgrad@massey.ac.nz APPLICATION DEADLINES MDes: 15 May (July start) or 30 November (February start)
