Most of our programs are also offered at master’s, graduate diploma and graduate certificate levels, and in some cases, at advanced master’s level (which provides a closely supervised research opportunity that can be completed part-time).
It is usually possible to move between these awards: if you do not meet the entry requirements for a master’s degree program, the graduate certificate or graduate diploma can provide an alternative entry pathway.
We also offer short courses: you can undertake individual units of study or Professional Certificates.
