Course
code: 2344 + Course abbreviation: GradDipApplEc + Course director: Dr
Gennadi Kazakevitch + Offered by off-campus distributed learning from the
Faculty of Business and Economics -- Gippsland campus + Normally completed
in four semesters of part-time study
The course has been designed for graduates from non-economics disciplines who
wish to gain a formal qualification in applied economic studies. Alternatively,
students may hold a degree in commerce or business during which they completed
only the equivalent of first-year economics or which is of no more than 10
years standing. The course will target local and international students who are
unable to study full-time or who do not have access to a university campus for
campus-based part-time study.
Applicants require a pass degree or equivalent qualification from a recognised
tertiary institution or an executive certificate from this faculty with an
average grade of credit or above. Credits and exemptions may be granted for
maximum of four units of relevant partially completed graduate studies. The
merit of applications for credits and exemptions will be determined on a
case-by-case basis. It is essential that units submitted for credit or
exemption fit the philosophy and principles of this graduate course of study.
Units studied more than five years ago are regarded as beyond a reasonable time
limit for applicability and therefore not acceptable for credit/exemption.
This is a fee-paying course. Candidates should consult the Faculty of Business
and Economics -- Gippsland as to the 2002 course fee. Course fees are set and
reviewed annually and are therefore subject to change.
Students will be required to complete three core units and five electives.
Students may select any combination of elective units, however the following streams are recommended:
