Graduate Certificate in Simulation and Immersive Technologies

The Graduate Certificate in, Simulation & Immersive Technologies will equip you to become a future-ready design leader, capable of understanding and meeting the growing demand of immersive practices across a multitude of industries.

The program offers a unique human-centric, design-led approach focusing on human perception and experience. You'll learn how, why, when and where to effectively utilise simulation and immersive platforms including VR, AR, MR and XR.

Your learning will engage you with these technologies first-hand as you explore real case studies and gain insights from global leaders. You'll develop immersion strategies to tackle specific industry-related problems in your field of interest.

The program caters to the demands of professionals from diverse industry sectors. It can be studied full-time or part-time and is delivered via a range of flexible modalities incorporating online, face-to-face classes and creative studios.

This degree is designed to accommodate the needs of busy professionals from a wide range of backgrounds. You will choose to study fully online, or in blended mode with part-time and full-time options available. In blended mode, you will study core courses online and attend two intensive face-to-face meetups per year on-campus or at our industry partner facilities. You will also have full access to all campus facilities throughout your study.

The Graduate Certificate in Simulation and Immersive Technologies will equip you to analyse how, why, when and where to effectively utilise simulation and immersive platforms including virtual, augmented, mixed and extended reality (VR, AR, MR & XR).

The Graduate Certificate in Simulation & Immersive Technologies is a 0.7 year full-time program consisting of 4 courses (24 units of credit/UOC), including:

• 2 core courses
• 2 prescribed electives

As well as the technical side of visualisation and simulation, this unique program helps you understand the principles of human experience. This approach will enable you to better design appropriate and effective applications of VR, AR, MR and XR technologies to respond to and address real-world problems for:

• visualising and sensemaking of complex data sets
• designing  human centric immersive environments and interactions
• simulating medical and defence procedures
• modelling and planning real world processes
• designing creative and cultural experiences
• researching, experimenting, education and training
