The Postgraduate Certificate in Digital Communications is intended for
professionals in either computing or communications who wish to undertake
studies in computer communications. Its aims are to provide a thorough
understanding of the central subject of the course, computer communications,
and to consolidate students' skills in the underlying foundation disciplines of
computing, digital technology and communications.
The
normal entry requirement is a three-year degree or diploma-level qualification
in a discipline that provides a suitable basis for the course, eg computer
science, data processing or electrical, electronic or communications
engineering.
Applicants with a degree or diploma in a discipline not directly related to the
course will be considered if they have relevant work experience in computers or
communications. Applicants without degree or diploma qualifications may also be
admitted on the basis of work experience. The level of work experience required
would be at least five years in a position carrying significant technical
responsibility in an area relevant to the course. The number of places
available to applicants in this category is limited to 25 per cent.
