Entry requirements

Postgraduate and higher courses usually use academic prerequisites, degree equivalence and English-language requirements.

Postgraduate entry

A recognised Bachelor Degree (AQF Level 7) or higher or equivalent training.

If the first degree is not related to this area of study then at least two years of relevant work/life experience is required.

Most of the units taken assume some prior knowledge, details of which are given in the description of each unit in the Handbook.

Some students may therefore need to complete additional prerequisite units.

English requirement

If your current English result is below direct entry, consider the university-recognised English language pathway or ELICOS package; successful completion at the required level can usually satisfy English entry without another English test.
