The
Diploma of Wine Technology and Marketing is an undergraduate diploma course of
eight subjects (48 points) designed for students who are concurrently enrolled
in a Monash degree. Up to 24 points of the diploma may be cross-credited to the
concurrent bachelors degree as elective subjects where this is consistent with
degree regulations. The course allows professional specialisation in wine
industry studies leading to a double award over three-and-a-half years of
study.
In the course, the subject sequence moves the student from the core sciences to
the applied sciences (viticulture and oenology) and the business management and
marketing subjects. The part-time course is multidisciplinary in nature and
will be offered by flexible delivery to create a study program that will be
compatible with the subjects in the degree program concurrently undertaken by
the student.
On completion of this course, students will be able to: demonstrate an understanding of the basic concepts of plant physiology, soil science, wine chemistry and wine microbiology as they apply to viticulture and wine production; demonstrate an understanding of the basic principles of business management, marketing and financial management as they apply to viticulture, wine production and distribution; integrate the scientific and business aspects of viticulture, wine production and distribution; understand and use integrative management practices and techniques for the production of quality grapes and wine; evaluate wine quality using chemical and sensory techniques.
The diploma will be taken over a minimum of three-and-a-half years on a part-time basis concurrently with a bachelors degree.
Entry will only be open to students who have satisfied the entry requirements for an undergraduate degree at Monash University and who have enrolled in a Monash degree.
No more than 50 per cent credit for equivalent studies in other awards.
HECS fees are liable. Single subject fees are $1361 (business) and $1650 (science).
