Undergraduate certificates: another pathway to degree courses at CDU
There’s another path to tertiary study at Charles Darwin University for people who have missed out on a place in a course or believed they may not have the opportunity to study at university.
New Undergraduate Certificate courses can provide students with both a qualification on completion, and entry to a degree course at CDU.
Undergraduate Certificates are available on campus or online, part-time or full-time, from anywhere in Australia. To further support these courses, CDU is discounting the cost of undergraduate certificate courses by 20 per cent to students who apply by 26 February, enrol in Semester 1 and complete their qualification by 31 December 2021.
The certificates are a direct pathway to further tertiary education.
Applicants don’t need an ATAR score to study for an undergraduate certificate, but they do need a Year 12 certificate, or a Certificate III, equivalent study or work experience. A student can complete their certificate with credits in up to four subjects of an undergraduate degree.
Undergraduate certificate courses are available in areas such as Technology, Nursing and Midwifery, Arts, Education, Environment, Sport Science, Engineering and Business.
More information about the courses and how to apply for them can be found at https://you.cdu.edu.au/undergraduate-certificates
