Graduate Diploma
The Graduate Diploma in Computer Science provides students with any undergraduate degree and some programming/maths experience with the equivalent of a major in Computer Science.
The course will augment students' existing knowledge with considerable technical expertise in computer science, including exposure to a variety of programming paradigms, an understanding of the systematic processes underpinning the software development lifecycle, and an appreciation of advanced topics in computing.
The course provides a pathway to the Master of Computer Science for high achieving students.
Students will complete between four and six core subjects, with the electives making up a total of eight subjects.
