Postgraduate Diabetes Course Structure Selector
On this page you can review the course structure for our Postgraduate level Diabetes course and register your modules for your chosen course of study.
The course is designed for GPs, hospital doctors, specialist nurses and health professionals that are involved in the care for, and treatment of, people with diabetes. It is structured in such a way that enables professionals to balance the requirements of their career with further study at university if they so wish.
A flexible, modular structure allows you to study up to two years part-time, starting with the Postgraduate Certificate in the first year and progressing to the Postgraduate Diploma in the second.
The Postgraduate Certificate totals 60 CATS, and the Postgraduate Diploma 120 CATS. All of the required modules in each year must be taken before a student is allowed to progress to the next year of study.
