Major Project

In normal circumstances, students would undertake the Graduate Certificate level subjects first (or at least as co-requisites).

The minimum rate of completion for the Masters degree is three semesters. The College does not enrol students as full time or part time. We regard anyone on less than a full time load as part time.
