Applicants must submit a digital portfolio if they do not have an undergraduate degree in Design or a related field (a detailed CV is an accepted alternative to a portfolio), or if they are seeking Advanced Standing (unit exemptions) outside of an agreed pathway or articulation agreement. To submit a digital portfolio, applicants will first need to complete their online application and will then receive a communication as to how to provide a portfolio.
Yes. Credit is granted in recognition of previous study and/or experience and allows students to gain advanced standing towards their course, assessed on a case-by-case basis. Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) also allows students to gain credit towards their course in recognition of skills and knowledge gained through work experience, life experience and/or formal training. Note that where relevant professional experience is used as the basis of admission, no further recognition for prior learning/credit can be granted on that basis.
The Master of Design has strong industry connections and co-creation partnerships with organisations including the Australian Centre for Inclusive Design, Pretzel Lab, No Vacancy Gallery, City of Casey Smart Cities and Innovation, Boroondara Council, and Uniting Age Well.

Honestly I was lost when I first started looking at Australian colleges. There are just too many options and every agent gives you different info. A friend told me about FindTheCourses and within a week I had shortlisted 3 programs that actually matched my budget and visa situation. My advisor Sanjay was super helpful — never felt like I was being pushed into anything.
