FAQs for Current Students
NOTE: Frequently Asked Questions for Prospective Students are available on the Faculty Website.
When are the face-to-face sessions held this year?
Generally, for each unit, two face-to-face workshops are held - usually one at the beginning of the semester and one at the end. However, the number of workshops and the precise days they are held will vary fro unit to unit. We keep a current schedule of these sessions for our current students so that you can plan your trips to campus (or even to Sydney) ahead of time. See this year's dates for the face-to-face workshops page for information.
Can I change streams if I've already started?
Yes. The core units for both streams are the same so it is generally no problem to change your mind about which stream to follow mid-way. for example, to switch from the Professional to the Research stream, you will simply need to do the compulsory Research unit "Learning Technology Research Frontiers" and the research dissertation on a topic of your choice. For more information, talk to representatives at the student administration office.
Can I change to the Graduate Certificate or Graduate Diploma if I have already enrolled in the Masters?
Yes. You may have enrolled in the Masters, but decide later that you are happy to complete your studies after 6 completed units, to receive the Graduate Diploma (GradDip LS&T) or after just 4 completed units to receive the Graduate Certificate (GradCert LS&T). For more information, talk to representatives at the student administration office.
