Modes of study
The Melbourne GSM offers a number of choices when it comes to accessing our range of subjects and programs. You can choose from full or part-time; or complete sinlge subjects instead of an entire course. It means you don't have to commit to an entire degree if you only want to study one or two individual subjects for a professional refresher, to meet accreditation requirements, or because specific subjects are not offered at your current university.
Professional Recognition
Our professional recognition page lists the programs which are recognised or accredited by Australian professional bodies such as CPA, ICAA and the Institute of Actuaries.
