Diploma of Business (Project Management)

The Diploma of Business (Project Management) is embedded in the Bachelor and Associate Degree of Business (Project Management) and has been designed as both an exit qualification and a pathway into the Bachelor qualification. The overall aim of the Diploma of Business (Project Management) is to provide a flexible, student-centred and academically rigorous course of study, which seeks to further develop students’ project administration and management skills and competencies and give them a solid foundation for further study in the undergraduate level.
