Information for applicants
Computer literacy:
Students planning to study this programme must be competent in using a computer/mobile device. A sufficient level of computer literacy would include competent use of basic file management, email, internet, and word processing skills.
Because most students will be studying part-time while in full-time employment, it is strongly recommended not to enrol for more than one course per semester (20 credit or 25 credit course). If the student wants to study more than one course, and personal circumstances allow an available and dedicated period of time for study (i.e. not in full-time work), the Programme Coordinator must be contacted and will advise the student accordingly.
