International Students - Fees for Postgraduate Research Degrees
Below are the Fee Bands which have been set for our research programs from 2004 through to 2008 indicating the growth in tuition fees each year. These projected fees will allow you to calculate the total tuition fees for a program as long as 5 years. The fees shown are for a full time annual study load of 48 units of credit (UOC).
For students commencing study in Semester 2, your first semester fees will be calculated on the basis of the applicable rate at the time of your entry but will be calculated based on the UOC that you enrol in during Semester 2. Usually this is 12 UOC. In Semester one of the following year, your fees will then be calculated on the fee bands for the new academic year.
If you have an offer to study at UNSW and defer the start date into the new calendar year then the fees will be set at the current band rates for the year you commence your studies.
As a general rule research fees are charged on a semester basis irrespective of when studies are commenced. The standard full time year of study is 48 Units of Credit.
The Full time Annual Fee for Postgraduate Research Programs is indicated in the table below:
