Graduate Diploma in Management (Manufacturing)
This program is available through the University of South Australia, either face to face, in Adelaide or elsewhere by arrangement, or online. It normally takes one year's part-time study, for those who have completed the Graduate Certificate.
The program is designed to provide education for graduates and other students with interests in the area of manufacturing management.
Entry requirements
Students completing a graduate certificate at credit level or better will be eligible for entry.
Program Structure
The program structure allows for choice in courses to suit individual needs and background.

Online Delivery
The Graduate Diploma in Management (Manufacturing) is available nationally via the internet. The online program structure is the same as the structure of the programs delivered on campus in Adelaide.
Online delivery of a course can offer you a number of benefits:
- You can study from anywhere in the world - literally. All you need is access to the internet, so you can study even if your job requires interstate and international travel, or if prefer to study from home.
- You can study at a time convenient to you. Although the courses are interactive you don't need to be online at the same time as other students and the teaching staff.
- You have the opportunity for stimulating interaction with students and staff in a number of formats such as virtual classrooms, virtual cafeteria and other interactive forms.
- You have access to a high quality postgraduate learning environment. Our learning methodologies are based on the integrations of theory and practical work place applications.
Cost
In 2003 fees are $1,600 per course. A Student Amenity Fee of $77 per year is also payable for online courses.
