Full-time students have a maximum of one year to complete this program. Part-time students have a maximum of two years to complete this program.

A pro-rata adjustment of the maximum time period will apply for those students who transfer from one mode of study to another. A pro-rata reduction in the maximum time period will apply to students who are admitted to a program with advanced standing.

Major studies objectives

The major study provides students with knowledge and skills in a specific discipline. The four major study areas in the Postgraduate Certificate in Engineering are:

• Advanced Structural Engineering Design

• Engineering Management

• Engineering Project Management

• Road Engineering

IT requirements

Access to an up-to-date computer is necessary. On-campus students can access appropriately equipped laboratories, but should consider acquisition of their own computer. External students should be able to access a computer with the following as advised by the 精东传媒app. All students should have access to email and the Internet via a computer running the latest versions of Internet web browsers such as Internet Explorer or Firefox.
