The Graduate Diploma of Law Research Studies is an 80 credit point program designed to provide graduates in the Law discipline with the opportunity to undertake advanced study in research methodology and to undertake supervised research work, in the discipline area appropriate to their research trajectory.

The program provides the necessary preparation for entry into a higher degree research program (Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), Master of Philosophy (MPhil), or equivalent program) for applicants who do not possess the required qualifications for direct admission into these programs. The program will also be available to students who wish to undertake advanced studies in the identified disciplinary fields, but who may not wish to progress to MPhil or PhD study.

This new degree brings together technical and practical skills in the fields of intelligent digital technologies. You will learn the fundamentals of ICT problem solving and high level programming skills, for application in cutting edge fields such as the Internet of Things (IoTs), robotics, app and web development, big data analysis, and virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) applications.

In your first year you will learn about trends in emerging technologies, coding and human computer interaction. Choose between two majors, IoTs and Robotics or Programming for Visualisation and Entertainment, or undertake both majors. If you choose a single major you will have the flexibility to undertake electives of your choice. In your final year of studies, you will bring together your skills and knowledge to form Intelligent Digital Technologies for industry through a work integrated learning course.

To be awarded a Bachelor of Business (Honours) degree, one additional year of study is required following the successful completion of the Bachelor of Business.
