Admissions Process
Bachelor degree
As this is a postgraduate program, you must already be a university graduate to apply. Preference is given to those with additional relevant postgraduate qualifications.
3+ years of work experience
The candidate must have a minimum of three years of full-time work experience.
English language proficiency
Candidates who did not complete their secondary education in English must have an English Language Proficiency Score (ELPS) to enrol into the program. At the time of applying for the program, a student is not required to show an ELPS.
However, on being offered admission and prior to the course commencement, students are required to show an ELPS. The last date to submit the score for the January 2017 intake is 30th November 2017.
Acceptable scores are as follows:
- IELTS minimum score of 6.5 (students may opt to appear for the Academic or General IELTS test)
- TOEFL
iBT minimum score of 70 - Pearson Test of English minimum score of 60
Submit your application online (free of cost).
Applications are considered on a rolling basis (i.e. evaluated when they are received) so the sooner you apply, the better your chances
Candidates only need to submit one application but may apply for two specialisations with a single application. Admission is offered for only one specialisation and the applicant cannot make changes to the offer. Submitting more than one application form may disqualify a candidate for admission.
If you do not desire placement services or are taking a leave of absence from your present employers (with a commitment to rejoin them), mark the relevant box in the application form. Candidates accepted under "non-placements" cannot change to "placement category".
