Available for international students
The Graduate Diploma in Science and Technology gives you the opportunity to retrain in an area of science that interests you.
If you wish to study at a postgraduate level but do not have the required prerequisites, the Graduate Diploma in Science and Technology can help you gain the credits and knowledge you need.
This qualification is useful if you have a background in one area of science, and are looking to move into another.
This graduate diploma is also useful if you are looking for a flexible programme that allows you to undertake a shorter course of study at university level than that required by a three year bachelor’s degree. It will take one year full-time to complete (120 credits).
This qualification does require an existing competence in the subject you are to study. You will be required to complete a number of courses at 300-level (third year).
If you have substantial industry experience at a senior level this may be considered towards your application. This is on a case-by-case basis.
You may have courses passed under this programme credited to a bachelor’s degree, provided the courses comply with the regulations of the degree in question.
If you do not have a background in science, only need a few courses or are looking for a qualification with more flexibility, we recommend you consider the Certificate in Science and Technology or the Graduate Certificate in Science. These are 60-credit qualifications that will give you the background you need to progress to a degree in science or technology-related areas.
