The Graduate Diploma in Regional and Community Development will provide students with a general understanding of governance issues and of planning and research in state, national and international public and private organisations. Students will gain knowledge in the historical, ecological, contested and subjective meanings of place and community and be able to analyse the interconnections between community and place, and their relevance to the organisational context in which individuals live and work.
Exit point: Students may also exit the program after successful completion of four units with a Graduate Certificate in Regional and Community Development, or may continue on into the Master in Regional and Community Development.
Graduates work in the public and private sector in areas such as community development, health, education, social welfare, community arts, criminal justice, and the environment.
