Master of Education

The accreditation of the Master of Education at the end of 1997 represents a significant step forward in the life of the College. This degree accredited in NSW and nationally recognised requires the completion of eight units, including two core units. The course has been designed as a one year full-time program or equivalent part-time. An optional exit point has been provided after the completion of four units of the program (including one core unit) allowing students to leave the program with the Graduate Diploma of Education. The Graduate Diploma cannot be held in conjunction with the Master's Degree.

AUDITING

It is also possible to undertake the Master of Education on an audit basis; ie not for credit towards receiving the Masters Degree. Audit students receive unit materials and can be involved in class activities but are not required to submit any assessment tasks. Audit students may elect to have individual tuition by the lecturer and may also elect to have access to Southland College's library for a small fee. No transfer of credit can be given for an audited unit. Students who cover four units by audit will receive a Certificate of Audit.

There are no entry requirements for auditing courses.
