The Graduate Diploma in Safety, Health and Environment (SHE) is an interdisciplinary graduate program of study for students with a safety, health or environment background intending to become SHE professionals. It is the second stage of a Graduate Certificate, Graduate Diploma and Master of Science in Safety, Health and Environment. The Graduate Diploma requires 48 UOC, is normally completed in one year of full time study (or equivalent part-time) and is available in on campus and off campus study modes, with approximately equal emphasis given to occupational health and safety; environmental science; and SHE management. The program is design to accept graduates from many health, science, environment, engineering and management disciplines.

Please contact the School of Safety Science for the Program Objectives and Learning outcomes.

Plus:
12 UOC Elective Courses

The elective courses may be chosen from the list of elective courses offered in postgraduate programs of the School of Safety Science program (subject to any pre-requisites of these courses being completed), or, from other schools within the University, subject to the approval of both the relevant program authorities. The range of electives available in off-campus mode is more restricted than for internal students.

Exemption but not necessarily advanced standing (transfer credit) may be awarded to students who can establish that they have equivalent knowledge in these courses at an appropriate level. Where necessary other, approved postgraduate courses may replace existing courses for which exemption has been granted.

Direct entry to the Graduate Diploma Program requires a four-year degree in a relevant discipline or a three-year degree and at least two years relevant postgraduate work experience.
