This course is designed for persons who are working, or intending to work, in
any area of industrial relations, management, HRM or trade union activities.
The course focuses upon the workplace aspects of industrial and employee
relations, and links industrial relations and employee management practices
with the broader issues of economic policy, wage and labour policy, efficiency
and productivity. The institutional and legal framework for industrial and
employee relations is also covered in detail.
Admission to the course is open to candidates who have qualified for a pass
degree or an equivalent qualification from a recognised tertiary institution.
There is no requirement that a candidate should have previously studied
industrial relations. Admission to the program, and selection of the
appropriate subjects, will depend upon the candidate's academic and
disciplinary background.
Candidates may be eligible for a maximum of four credit exemptions for subjects
considered to be equivalent to particular subjects in the course of study.
Subjects completed as part of a bachelors degree would not normally qualify for
exemption. Candidates should refer to the Department of Management for further
details.
The Graduate Diploma in Industrial and Employee Relations is a fee-paying
course. Candidates should refer to the Department of Management as to the 2001

to change.

Employee Relations with an average grade of credit or above may apply for
admission to the Master of Industrial and Employee Relations.
