Graduate Certificate in Applied Finance

About

The Graduate Certificate in Applied Finance is an introductory course designed to provide a general understanding of areas in applied finance such as financial statement analysis, managerial finance, statistics, and corporate governance.

We value the importance of prior learning and work experience in this course and understand that not all mature age working professionals have completed an undergraduate degree. If you fit this profile, still apply for the course, as we will assess your other relevant tertiary qualifications or substantial relevant professional or managerial experience.

Upon successful completion of the Graduate Certificate, you may enrol in a Master of Applied Finance and be eligible for credit for the four subjects completed within the Graduate Certificate of Professional Accounting. Progression with credit to other master programs, including the MBA, may also be possible.

Admission criteria

Either:

• a recognised bachelor degree, or recognised equivalent; or
• a tertiary academic qualification of at least three years' full-time duration.

Applicants with five years' full-time equivalent managerial/professional work experience in finance should contact UOW to discuss their options.
