Postgraduate

Postgraduate study is the perfect way to progress your career and fire-up your earning potential. If you’ve already completed an undergraduate degree or have been in the workforce for some time, further specialised study at the postgraduate level will give you a competitive edge.

Whether you’re looking to upgrade your professional qualifications, deepen your knowledge in a specialist area or continue pursuing a passion, a postgraduate degree opens up new ideas and ways of thinking, and gives you access to a whole new network. On average, UC graduates with postgraduate degrees earn up to 26% more than those with an undergraduate degree.*

Understanding the costs of studying a degree is an important part of getting prepared for university. There are lots of outlays to consider, but it doesn’t mean that university is unaffordable.

As a domestic student, you’re eligible for a Commonwealth Supported Place in all undergraduate and some postgraduate courses. You may also be eligible for a government HELP loan, which allows you to defer your remaining course fees and pay later through the income tax system.
