Before submitting an application for a PhD at Curtin, you need to have made contact with an academic who is willing to supervise you. You can search for supervisors here. When contacting supervisors we recommend that you communicate your research intent in a concise but well thought through manner – academic staff will receive a lot of similar requests and are only likely to respond positively to the ones that demonstrate commitment and ability. It is also a good idea to attach a CV (no longer than two pages) and a copy of your academic transcripts.

When you submit your application you will need to write a research proposal. You can find a guideline of what Curtin look for in a proposal here.

Once you have received provisional approval from a supervisor, you can lodge your PhD application online. You can find the application form here.

In step three you will be asked to enter agent details. You should enter Study Options contact details here. This will enable Study Options to certify the documentation that is required for your application free of charge and also liaise with the admissions teams with regards to your application.
