POSTGRADUATE DIPLOMAS AND CERTIFICATES 58 CHOOSE YOUR QUALIFICATION WAIKATO MANAGEMENT SCHOOL POSTGRADUATE DIPLOMAS AND CERTIFICATES Postgraduate certifi cates and postgraduate diplomas are university qualifi cations that require relatively short periods of study and are targeted to meet particular educational needs. If you are intending to take a Masters Degree, a postgraduate diploma from Waikato Management School is also the fi rst year of postgraduate study for a masters degree. Who are they suited to? These qualifications are suitable for the following students: > Those with an undergraduate qualification who would like to increase their knowledge of a particular area of management. > Those with a bachelors degree who want to work towards a masters qualification. For these students the postgraduate diploma represents the first stage, or first year of a masters programme. For example, a student with an undergraduate degree with a major in accounting can complete the Postgraduate Diploma in Accounting followed by a one-year Master of Management Studies in Accounting. The postgraduate diploma and certificate provide a programme that’s the equivalent of one academic year in length. Most postgraduate diplomas and certificates are specialist qualifications. The Postgraduate Diploma in Management Studies is an exception; it provides a programme in general management for those with business experience. For a student with significant management experience the Postgraduate Diploma in Management Studies represents the first stage of the Waikato MBA. Subjects A subject is an area of study. Postgraduate Diplomas and Certificates offer many subject options. Choose From Accounting Economics Electronic Commerce Finance Human Resource Management International Management Management Communication Management Systems Marketing Public Relations Social Enterprise Strategic Management Tourism and Hospitality Management Postgraduate Diploma Only Business Futures and Leadership Entrepreneurship and Innovation Management and Sustainability POSTGRADUATE DIPLOMAS (1ST YEAR OF POSTGRADUATE STUDY) 500 level 500 level 500 level 500 level REQUIRED – From one subject area. ELECTIVE POSTGRADUATE CERTIFICATE 500 level 500 level REQUIRED – From one subject area.
ADMISSION TO DIPLOMAS AND CERTIFICATES Prerequisites Admission to the following programmes does not automatically imply admission to particular papers in the programmes. The prerequisites for the papers selected must also be satisfied. In some cases you may need to complete more than the minimum points required. Such extra requirements may apply if you have little or no background in the subject to be studied. Certificates and Diplomas You are eligible to apply for these programmes if you have (or expect to gain) University Entrance. You may also be eligible to apply for these programmes through Discretionary Entrance (under 20 years of age), or Special Admission (20 years or over). For admission into the diploma, you are also required to have a relevant certificate qualification, or evidence of training, experience and ability that makes you suitable for undergraduate study at the diploma level, as deemed by the University’s Academic Board. Graduate Certificates and Graduate Diplomas Admission to the Graduate Certificate is dependent upon either having a bachelor degree or being able to provide significant relevant work experience. Normally, certificate students will complete relevant prerequisites for the required papers. However, in some cases work experience may be counted in lieu of prerequisites. TONY PAINE Director, Christchurch Arts Centre "I'm passionate about social enterprise and my qualifications in that area, a postgraduate diploma followed by a masters, extended my thinking and practice as a manager. New Zealand would be pretty grey and lifeless without the kinds of businesses that are about so much more than making money, and Waikato Management School’s contribution to the social enterprise sector is an important part of making sure we continue to make a difference." For admission into the Graduate Diploma you are required to have a degree from the University of Waikato or a qualification considered by the University’s Academic Board to be equivalent. However, you may be accepted into the Graduate Diploma if you have the training, experience and ability which the University’s Academic Board considers suitable for a diploma. This usually means being able to provide evidence of at least three years of relevant work experience. Postgraduate Diplomas and Certificates Admission to the Postgraduate Diploma and the Postgraduate Certificate is normally dependent on having a bachelor degree completed with a B grade average in the subject to be taken for the qualification. Requirements Further information on specific rules and requirements for papers, subjects and the qualifications can be found in the Waikato Management School Student Handbook and the University of Waikato Calendar, which are available on-line at www.management.ac.nz/publications and http://calendar.waikato.ac.nz/ respectively. 59 ADMISSION TO DIPLOMAS AND CERTIFICATES
