Graduate diplomas

Any variations to the criteria listed below are listed in the individual course section.

Admission requirements

Candidates for admission require a pass degree in any discipline or an equivalent qualification and, usually, relevant employment experience or a credit average in an executive certificate or graduate certificate in the relevant discipline.

Duration

Graduate diplomas are normally completed in two semesters of full-time study or part-time equivalent. Faculty regulations regarding duration can be found at http://www.monash.edu.au/pubs/calendar/facultyregs/regs-bus03.html#Heading72.

Advanced standing

Candidates may be eligible for advanced standing for a maximum of four units (24 credit points) if previous study is considered to be equivalent to particular units in the course of study. Advanced standing is restricted to study undertaken in the last five years and must be approved by the course director.

Progression to further studies

Students who complete a graduate diploma with an average grade of credit or above may apply for admission into the relevant masters degree.

Fees

All graduate diplomas are offered on a fee-paying basis.

The fees quoted are provided as a guide only and are subject to final approval by the university late in 2003. For future years of your course, Monash University reserves the right to adjust annual tuition fees to take into account increases in university and course delivery costs. However, Monash University undertakes that any adjustment factor will not exceed 10 per cent per annum.
