~081 Graduate Diploma in Maintenance
Engineering
This part-time course is designed for those who have a
qualification such as a diploma or degree in engineering or
applied science, and who wish to take advanced studies based
on maintenance engineering, maintenance management and
its interaction with industry in general. Course content
comprises common core material with the Graduate Diploma
in Risk Management, emphasising maintenance engineering's
place as a major sub-set of business risk management activity,
complemented by specialist subjects relating to the practice of
maintenance engineering. The course will usually spread over

People who have experience in the maintenance field but not
the prerequisite qualifications may be enrolled if they have an
adequate background and are able to cope with the course.
Assessment is continuous throughout the course.
~081 Graduate Diploma in Manufacturing
Technology
This course is designed to increase the effectiveness of
engineers, scientists and technologists who, by virtue of their
position in industry or the public service, find themselves illequipped
to function in a modern manufacturing operation.
This may be due to the nature of their original training
(qualification), or simply to the rapid changes in technology
and the industrial environment.
Entrance requirements
All applicants should have completed a relevant degree or
diploma in engineering, science or applied science.
Under special circumstances, a limited number of applicants
not meeting the above, may be admitted after interviews on
the basis of considerable relevant experience and level of
responsibility in manufacturing.
Duration
The course is equivalent to one year full-time study and is
normally undertaken by part-time study over two and a half
years. (Students must be able to attend at least one half-day
session during normal day time hours.)
