The Graduate 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.
In 1997 the course fee is $3000 or $750 per subject.
The Graduate Certificate in Digital Communications comprises twenty-four credit points of study taken over six months full-time or one year part-time.
Subjects may be taken in any order, subject to the pre and corequisites defined for each subject. The subjects are:
