• to have completed post-secondary studies and 3 years full-time equivalent relevant work experience (see below), or
• to have completed 5 years full-time equivalent relevant work experience (see below).

Relevant disciplines include engineering, science, environmental management, economics, commerce, business, public policy, international development, information technology, energy, law or architecture/design.

Relevant work experience includes work: in engineering, science, environmental management, economics, commerce, business, public policy, international development, information technology, energy, law or architecture/design related field. This will need to be supported with evidence.

Evidence of relevant work experience should include a letter from your employer (and/or previous employers) clearly stating the following:

• That you work (or worked) within the specified organisation
• The nature of your work, detailing any relevant duties and responsibilities to the entry criteria above
• The length of time you were in your role/s (i.e demonstrating minimum length for entry) and whether this was full-time, part-time, or casual
• Any further bespoke conditions listed by the entry criteria

Letters will typically be expected to be presented on company letterhead and signed by a manager or HR representative. A CV or resume is not a sufficient document on its own, and must be accompanied by a supporting letter as described above.

All applications based on work experience are subject to an individual assessment.

Entry into a program through work experience does not necessarily provide a pathway into further study in a Masters.
