Postgraduate Pathways
A Postgraduate Certificate offers students the opportunity to gain an accredited qualification at Level 9, which can provide a pathway to further opportunities at Postgraduate Diploma or Masters level. Many of ATU’s Postgraduate Certificates are listed alongside additional award options.
A Higher Diploma is a postgraduate qualification at Level 8, typically offered as one academic year of study upon successful completing of an undergraduate degree. Higher Diplomas may offer students a conversion pathway into a new career or discipline area.

Typically 5, 10 or 15 credits, this method of studying allows you to choose modules to suit professional or personal development goals. Short courses are an idea way to return to education or further develop skills in a flexible manner.
