Graduate Diploma in Arts

The general Graduate Diploma in Arts is a non-tagged general Diploma where students may enrol in subjects offered by a variety of Arts departments. The Graduate Diploma in Arts will be predominantly a 'stand-alone' qualification although it may, depending on subjects completed, also articulate with the Postgraduate Diploma in Arts. The Postgraduate Diploma may then provide a pathway to one-year coursework masters or research programs.
