Course overview

Not sure what you want to study at university? This undergraduate certificate is for you. It is structured to allow you to choose between a range of different courses, setting you on a path to continue your studies across a choice of nine of our most popular bachelor degrees.

This is how it works: You complete four courses, one of which is Foundation Mathematics. The remaining three courses include one each in business, the arts and information technology. For each area, you get to choose between two courses, so you can tailor your certificate to your interests.

This certificate is ideal if you want to get a primer in tertiary study. There is no commitment beyond four courses and you get a qualification that is recognised in the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF). If you like the experience, one or more of the courses you studied may be credited towards a Griffith bachelor degree.
