Part-time structure and units

Our part-time (in-practice) course involves 72 credit points of study.  We give you credit for another 24 credit points of study in recognition of the experience you are receiving in your real life workplace. 

Our part-time (general) course involves 96 credit points of study.  Please note that we do no charge you for LPP118 Placement.

Our courses run over QUT's '6TP' teaching periods. This enables us to offer 3 entry points to our part-time courses each year (January, March and June) and it enables us to accelerate your progress during the course by eliminating long semester break periods.

Part time students usually complete course units in this order.
