Abstract
This paper presents information about the organisation and administration of graduate education in universities in Australia and other countries. Sources of information were publications, interviews with staff in universities and other relevant organisations, and questionnaires. Particular emphasis is placed upon graduate programs, administration and infrastructure, supervision, completion, and quality. Several recommendations are proposed about the need for graduate schools/faculties, a national graduate organisation, detailed data bases, increased funding, research, evaluation, and above all, effective supervision.Keywords
