Confidentiality

There are University procedures for enabling research degrees to be completed when they involve confidential aspects, such as commercial confidentiality.  They may involve restrictions on publication of results for a specified period of time. The procedures often enable some chapters of a thesis to be restricted in distribution, with sunset clauses of usually not more than a year.  Confidentiality aspects are agreed upon at the time of submission of the Programme of Study. Further information can be sought from the Manager of the Graduate Centre (PH: 9360 2583/6506 or e-mail K.Olkowski@murdoch.edu.au )
