About this program
A two-year master's (48 credit points: 30 required, 12 restricted-choice, 6 elective) covering sustainable development, gender and development, humanitarian intervention, global health, and the planning, monitoring and evaluation of development projects.
The nine-credit-point Development Research Project lets students investigate a real initiative, often tied to their current job, with past work examining programs in Papua New Guinea, Indonesia, Mexico and Pakistan. Entry is a bachelor's degree in any field, with a professional pathway for people with relevant experience, and holders of a graduate certificate or diploma in the field receive credit. Being in Canberra puts students near DFAT and the aid and NGO sector. It suits people heading into roles as program managers, monitoring and evaluation officers, gender advisers or development consultants.
