You will also gain valuable transferable skills needed to navigate your career into the future.

UndergraduateAn undergraduate degree is typically a three-year, full-time course. In addition to face-to-face classes, we also offer distance study options for some courses to international students based outside Australia. For many courses there is a range of units available over the summer, spring and winter breaks.

Many of our courses are accredited and professionally-recognised by industry and professional bodies in Australia and abroad. Professional recognition of degrees in areas such as accounting, engineering, business, IT, law, health or education is necessary to work in these fields and graduating with a University of Tasmania degree in these fields allows you to pursue rewarding careers in these professions.

Double or combined degreesDouble undergraduate degrees merge the core requirements of two different degrees. This lets you graduate with the equivalent of two undergraduate degrees faster than it would take to do two separate degrees.

Double degrees can give you greater depth of knowledge in more than one field and multidisciplinary skills. This gives you more career options. If you’re academically capable and want to challenge yourself, a double degree is an ideal way to get the most from your time at our University.

HonoursHonours can help you gain deeper knowledge in your specialist undergraduate area. The additional honours year can mean you start your career higher up the ladder and progress in your career faster.

It can also lead to postgraduate study and a career in research or academia.

Master’s by courseworkPostgraduate degrees vary in duration and offer a variety of exit options including graduate certificates, graduate diplomas, and master’s. Depending on the course you choose, your master’s by coursework degree may be by coursework only, or a combination of coursework and research.

Many of our postgraduate coursework programs are accredited and professionally-recognised by industry bodies in Australia and abroad. Professional recognition of University of Tasmania master’s degrees in such areas as accounting, engineering, business, IT, health or education enables you to take your careers to new heights.

Higher Degrees by ResearchPostgraduate degrees by research (master’s or PhD) are known as Higher Degrees by Research (HDR).

Prospective candidates considering an HDR should have previous undergraduate or postgraduate qualifications including a substantial research component or project.

If you are interested in studying an HDR, visit utas.edu.au/GR
