Academic background and requirement

Recognised Bachelor's degree (AQF Level 7) or higher, or equivalent training, or professional experience in a related area

Students may be eligible for advanced standing in the Masters if they have achieved AQF Level 8 in a recognised, cognate discipline. 

Some of the units taken assume some prior knowledge.

The most common of these is the high school Physics prerequisite for units such as Energy in Society, Energy Management and Energy System Some students may therefore need to complete additional prerequisite units.
