Part-time 1 year (2 sessions)
Applicants should hold a degree or diploma from a recognised tertiary institution or equivalent.
There is no credit available for this Graduate Certificate. However, in some cases a student may apply to the Course Coordinator to substitute other subjects if they can demonstrate competence by virtue of previous studies in recognised award courses. Substitution does not reduce the number of subjects required to complete the course. Residential school requirements may be dropped where statistical and computer competence can be proved.
To graduate, students must satisfactorily complete
32 subject points and satisfy requirements at residential schools.
Students are expected to attend a five day residential school to be held in Autumn session, during which workshops in statistics and computer programs will be held and research projects will be discussed.
