Postgraduate course search help

Use the course search to help you find courses that interest you. The courses listed here start in Intakes 1-3 (December 2009 - April 2010).

Note: a 'keywords search' allows you to enter a combination of search types whereas the other options allow one specific type of search. For details see below.

Using keywords to search courses

A keywords search allows you to enter the course name, UAC course code, institution name, type of course or a combination of these search elements. To refine your search:

  • Choose 'any of these words (including and, of etc.)' to list as many courses as possible - for example, type in 'mathematics teaching' and select 'any' to find every instance of the word 'mathematics' and every instance of the word 'teaching'.
  • Choose 'all of these words' to list courses which include all of the keywords you entered - for example, type in 'mathematics teaching' and select 'all' to find every instance of the two words used together.
  • Choose 'an exact match of these words' to narrow your matches to the exact combination of words that you enter.

For example: if you want to find a course in accounting at the Australian Catholic University, select 'all of these words' and type in: accounting catholic

Course type

When you list your courses, make sure you use the correct UAC course code otherwise you could find you have applied for FEE courses when you intended to apply only for CSP courses.
