The Postgraduate Diploma in Information Technology is a cooperative program offered by all the schools of the Faculty of Information Technology. The course provides a broad program in information technology, enabling students to select specific areas for in-depth study, or to construct a program from a range of suitably advanced units. The postgraduate diploma course is essentially the first 48 points of the Master of Information Technology course, and also serves as a qualification for masters students who exit the course prior to completion.
The normal entry requirement is a degree that is equivalent to an Australian bachelors degree in computing, computer science or a technical information technology field.
The course consists of 48 points of coursework units. Included in
these units may be six or 12 points of individual project work.
Of the units taken, at least six (36 points) must be taken from the
postgraduate units offered by the Faculty of Information Technology. Up to two
units (12 points) may be taken from postgraduate units offered by other
faculties at Monash.
Students who complete the postgraduate diploma will be granted up to 24 points
of advanced standing in the Master of Information Technology program. The
number of points required to complete the masters will depend on the units
taken within the postgraduate diploma.
