Program description
The Graduate Certificate curriculum provides a foundation in the basic competencies of project management relevant to the initial phase of a project. The focus is on the development of the project scope and timeline as well as covering the basics of human behaviour in project teams.
Entry requirements
Successful completion of any undergraduate degree and two years’ appropriate and relevant work experience in the applicant’s given field; or qualifications and/or extensive relevant professional experience deemed equivalent by the Faculty Dean.
Intensive Mode delivery*
Intensive Mode Delivery (IMD) is a compacted and time efficient way for students to complete their postgraduate qualification with minimal impact for students on their work/home lifestyle.
This program can be completed part-time in 8 months if you undertake 2 subjects per semester. The face to face component of each subject is delivered via two x three day modules, each of which includes either a Saturday or Sunday. Students may choose the intensity of their study pattern to suit their particular circumstances so longer periods for completion at a lower intensity are also available. Opportunities for study through international exchange at partner universities offer global experience and exposure, and can be used to accommodate variations to the standard program caused by work and holiday commitments. For more information please contact the Faculty.
Professional Outcomes
This suite of programs provides graduates with the theoretical foundation necessary to develop a career in one of the fastest growing professions worldwide – that of project management.

The result is a global shortage of project managers at all levels in every field such as construction, information technology, finance, health care and related industries, property development and government.
