The Graduate Diploma in Ageing (GD-AGEING) is a nested award within the Master of Ageing course.
The GD-AGEING requires completion of a total of 100 points of study and is structured to suit individual needs and study preferences.
The GD-AGEING structure requires the completion of an integrated suite of 4 core subjects (50 points), along with a choice of four elective subjects (50 points). The GD-AGEING will not offer the opportunity to pursue the capstone subjects offered in the full 150 points Master of Ageing course.
Advanced standing up to 25 points may be awarded on entry into the GD-AGEING course as a result of post-graduate coursework in the ageing field. Hence, all students must complete a minimum of 75 points of study to be awarded the GD-AGEING.
