Graduate Certificate in International Development

About

Make a difference on a global scale

If you see yourself enriching the lives of people around the globe, or if you are working in a development-adjacent industry and are looking to upskill, then the Graduate Certificate in International Development will give you a nuanced understanding of the ways in which theories of development connect with development politics and practices.

You will study a range of compelling topics around development, including gender issues, the role of corporations, poverty, sustainability, global health issues, and post-conflict reconstruction. You will learn how to plan and/or manage an international development project based on curricula that has been designed in collaboration with current industry practitioners. Your core skills will be strengthened for a career in the public development sector or in multinational organisations across Australia and abroad.
