The Master of Science by Research provides you with the opportunity to gain knowledge and understanding in your chosen field research. You may develop broad skills in relevant areas of:
At the end of the programme, candidates are required to submit a thesis to the examination committee
List of specialisation in Computer Science :
Each PhD candidate will be followed up by at least two actively functioning supervisors throughout the PhD programme. The supervisors must have a PhD. The main supervisor is an employee of the faculty.
The Postgraduate School is responsible for ensuring that external supervisors are notified of the regulations and rules that govern the PhD programme.
If the PhD candidate wants to change supervisor, the change of supervisor form must be completed. Both the former supervisor and the new supervisor must sign the form. The form will be sent to the Postgraduate School which will send the case to the faculty for a final decision.
The thesis will be an independent, scientific work that meets international standards in terms of ethical requirements, academic level and methods. The rules contain requirements for theses. Theses at the Faculty of Ocean Engineering Technology and Informatics are written in English or Malay.
