Postgraduate Certificate of Applied Anthropology

Overview:

The Postgraduate Certificate is a shorter version of the MAA. The Certificate is made up of four coursework units and does not involve a research project.

The PG Cert is suitable for students who would like to gain some background in Applied Anthropology without the longer commitment involved in doing the Masters, or who would like to undertake primarily coursework-based study. The PG Cert may also provide a suitable entry into the Applied Anthropology program for students who are unsure if they would like to proceed to the Masters.
