The coursework component provides scholars opportunities to engage with faculty and peers in scholarly discourses and establish networks that foster academic and professional development. The research field is normally determined after coursework completion and consideration of the student's interests and facilities available. The student, however, may work within a given field for a period of time before their personal topic is determined.
Candidates interested in pursuing this programme will receive a theoretical and practical exposure of the research areas for the development of potential applications. There will be a limited curriculum of research-based programme, which will suffice for them to focus on finishing the basics and developing a research-based thesis.
