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 degree that is equivalent to an
Australian bachelors degree 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 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 qualifications may apply for the
Executive Certificate in Information Technology, indicating their preference in
the Postgraduate Certificate in Digital Communications. Entry to the
postgraduate certificate is possible subject to satisfactory achievement in the
executive certificate. Approved units in the executive certificate will be
counted as credits in this academic program. The number of places available to
applicants in this category is limited to 25 per cent.
The Postgraduate Certificate in Digital Communications comprises 24 credit points of study taken over six months full-time or one year part-time.
