Graduate and postgraduate diplomas

Since 1998, Monash University has distinguished between postgraduate diplomas which build on cumulative knowledge (the entry requirement is usually a bachelors degree with a major or specialisation in the area covered by the postgraduate diploma) and graduate diplomas where the normal entry requirement is a bachelors degree from any discipline.
Note that students in both the graduate and postgraduate diplomas in the Faculty of Arts at Monash University undertake postgraduate (fourth-year-level) subjects, not undergraduate subjects. A maximum of one-third of the subjects in any course may have been upgraded from third-year undergraduate level, requiring an appropriate upgrading of standards in the work submitted and the assessment thereof.
