Graduate Certificate in Commerce - Public Policy

This programme can be studied as a general commerce qualification or you can choose to specialise in a specific subject. Find out what qualifications you need to get into the GCertCom and what courses you need to take to complete it. Examine the methods used to make fair and good policy decisions and how they are put in place. Look at the role of government and how it can be made more effective. Learn how governments make policy, how the public sector is run and the political dimensions of public sector decision-making.

You need a Bachelor’s degree with at least a B average unless stated otherwise in the programme’s minimum general entry requirements. A background in a particular subject area or extensive relevant work experience may be required. Students with equivalent international qualifications from a recognised institution are encouraged to apply. Each application is assessed individually, and entry into postgraduate programmes is at the discretion of the programme director.
