Graduate Certificate in Public Health

Standard Entry requires an undergraduate degree from an Australian higher education institution or the equivalent standard in any other institution. This includes a process to assess the equivalency of qualifications received from overseas institutions as approved by the Course Coordinator.

Alternative Entry

Where standard entry is not able to be met the following criteria for alternative entry will be considered by the relevant Course Coordinator -

1. Five years of relevant work experience (Specific occupations, workplace settings and industries are more relevant for specific courses and will receive greater weighting in consideration) demonstrating the relevance of the course;
2. A record of high achievement in any other qualifications or uncompleted undergraduate qualifications such as Distinction average; and
3. An assessment of the prospective student's capacity to successfully undertake postgraduate study including reading, writing, analysis and research.

Applicants may be required to undertake an interview with the relevant Course Coordinator in person or via phone call or Skype.

Outcomes from the assessment may include:

1. Rejection of application due to failure to demonstrate compliance with criteria.
2. Standard Admission to course.
3. Provisional Admission to course with specified requirements ( pathways and additional support)
4. Delayed Admission to course subject to completion of UTAS student preparation program or other prescribed activities.
