A postgraduate diploma is rigorous. It is AQF Level 8, typically eight units over one year full time. Expect advanced theory, applied projects, and independent study. The workload is lighter than a full master’s but more intensive than undergraduate study, especially if you are changing fields.
It depends on your background and the field of study:
👍 It’s academically rigorous (postgraduate level)
👍 It requires independent study and discipline
But it’s less demanding than a master’s since it usually doesn’t require a thesis or extensive research.
Success requires consistent time management and engagement with industry-relevant tasks. Many courses include case studies, capstones, or workplace projects. Universities provide support services, including academic skills, English language support, and career coaching, which are valuable for international students.
