1997 QUT Handbook

The Graduate Diploma in Project Management has majors in Project Management and Property
Development. These areas are also available as majors within the Masters degree program.
Note: It is strongly recommended that all graduate diploma students complete the unit IFN001 Advanced
Information Retrieval Skills before commencing the course or early in Semester 1. The credit points of this
unit will not be included in the total credit points which must be completed for the award of the Graduate
Diploma.
All units shown are compulsory core units. Twelve credit point units are to be undertaken as two consecutive
semesters of study. They cannot be undertaken as one semester units. Students may undertake additional
elective units or replace core units for which credit has been formally approved with other units available
throughout the University. These units should be offered at a postgraduate level, or in some cases, at an
advanced undergraduate level. Variations to the recommended study program require prior approval from
the Course Coordinator.
School electives are offered subject to an appropriate enrolment in each semester.
