What will I learn?

The Diploma for Graduates (DipGrad) can be used for many purposes, and in some cases, effectively provides an additional major. It requires you to do at least seven papers, of which at least four are at 300-level or above. The programme is designed for graduates and may be completed by full-time candidates in one year or by part-time candidates over more than one year. A DipGrad is a great way to retrain or to update existing qualifications. Many students also find it a convenient way to continue learning and that it is a useful bridge to postgraduate study. Available endorsements: Any subject specified as a major subject for Bachelor of Arts (BA), Bachelor of Theology (BTheol), Bachelor of Science (BSc), Bachelor of Commerce (BCom) (excluding Tourism), Bachelor of Health Sciences (BHealSc) Creative Marketing Dentistry Sports Business The Diploma for Graduates (DipGrad) can be used for many purposes, and in some cases, effectively provides an additional major.
