Cross-disciplinary knowledge development courses
These courses provide a wide introduction to business
analytical thinking and applications in the early part of study (executive
certificates, graduate certificates, and graduate diplomas) with a more focused
problem area emphasis in the second part of studies (relevant postgraduate
diploma and masters degree).
Executive certificates are normally completed in one semester of
full-time study or part-time equivalent.
Executive certificates have been introduced by the faculty to allow entry
for experienced managers without a first degree who have at least six years
relevant employment experience. Executive certificates provide articulation
opportunities into graduate diplomas for students who attain an average grade
of credit or above throughout their studies.
Applicants must:
- have at least six years relevant employment experience, and
- have been either an owner manager or in a
management/supervisory position or administering expenditure in excess
of $500,000 pa for at least two years, and
- be recommended by their employer or, if self-employed, provide suitable
references.
Students who complete an executive certificate with an average
grade of credit or above are eligible to apply for admission to a range of
graduate diplomas offered by the faculty. Students may apply for credit
exemptions up to a maximum of four units towards the relevant graduate diploma
depending upon the units that have been studied in the executive certificate.
Students who successfully complete the graduate diploma with an average grade
of credit or above may be eligible to continue their studies in a relevant
masters by coursework degree.
All executive certificates are offered on a fee-paying basis and
unit fees vary depending upon the campus at which the course is undertaken.
Course fees are set and reviewed annually and are therefore subject to change.
