This graduate certificate has been developed to provide students the option of selecting from a wide range of units available in the Master of Public Health by coursework degree. Students will be able to select a group of 3 units that will provide them with skills immediately required in their roles as health professionals rather than having to enrol in a full master's degree program. However, if they wish to continue on this graduate certificate will give them 60 credit points of advanced standing towards either Graduate Diploma or a Master of Public Health.
This course information may be updated and amended immediately prior to semester. To ensure you have the correct outline, please check it again at the beginning of semester. In particular please check the course requirements and the unit and unit set offerings, as these differ according to course delivery location.
