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

- successfully completed an Australian bachelor degree (or equivalent overseas qualification) or a minimum of 8 years professional work experience in a related industry. Applicants with professional experience at a senior level that is less than 8 years may also be considered. To have your professional experience considered you must submit with your application a CV and a personal statement detailing your experience.
If the student's current English result is below the direct-entry requirement, consider the university's recognised English language pathway or ELICOS package. When the student successfully completes the approved pathway at the required level, the university may accept that pathway for English entry without requiring a new IELTS, TOEFL or PTE result. Always confirm exclusions for professional registration courses and the offer conditions.
