Graduate Certificate in Materials and Processing
Program available at Hamilton and Tauranga Campus
Graduate certificates are intended to develop your knowledge and skills in a subject area that is different from your first degree's major. You may be eligible if you haven't studied for a degree before if you can demonstrate an interest in the subject area and a satisfactory academic ability. By choosing to study a graduate certificate you can quickly develop career competency in a single subject area.
A graduate certificate is a shorter version of a graduate diploma, is studied at the undergraduate level, and can be completed in the equivalent of one semester of full-time study.
By studying Materials and Processing at the University of Waikato, you will learn how to add value to raw materials used to manufacture a number of useful products, while minimizing waste. These products can be as varied as dietary formulae, foods, ceramics that can withstand high temperatures, new metal alloys, pharmaceuticals, laminated boards, functional proteins, and composites.
Materials and processing skills are used in industrial and other activities where materials are undergoing chemical, biochemical or physical changes.
