Graduate Diploma in Business Studies (LMGBSS)

This program is designed to enable graduates to extend their studies into areas of interest that were not included in their primary degree. Students gain specialist knowledge in their chosen discipline by studying core human resource management, management or marketing subjects, and elective subjects allow them to investigate related areas of interest.

Admission requirements

An Australian bachelor degree in any discipline is required. Applicants with comparable qualifications will be considered.

Degree requirements

The course comprises eight subjects (120 credit points), including at least three subjects at third year level. The program may be completed in one year of full-time study or two years of part-time study.

With effect from 2005, some subjects in the management, marketing and human resource management streams will only be offered in alternate years. It may not be possible to complete streams in one year of full-time study.
