Graduate Certificate in Design

Unique in Australia, this course is intellectually vibrant, socially engaging, visionary, practice-focused and actively linked to industry. The course centres on building a design community network.

The course has two main components: specialised master classes led by a studio leader and industry partners; and theory and technology subjects taught across the program.

This course is offered as an exit degree option for students enrolled in the Master of Design (C04243), who want a one-session (24 credit points) experience of postgraduate coursework in design. Subjects offered are drawn from the Master of Design suite of subjects.
