Post-Graduate Qualifying Program (PQP)

The PQP is a one semester non-award program designed for students who already have tertiary qualifications but have not qualified for direct entry into master's degrees at Edith Cowan University (ECU). It equips students with the knowledge, skills and English Language Proficiency (ELP) needed for entry into ECU master's degrees.

The PQP offers four streams: Business (for entry into ECU master's degrees in business), Communications (preparing students for ECU's Master of Professional Communication), IT (with pathways into ECU's Master of Computer Science or Master of Cyber Security), and Social Work (providing preparation for the Master of Social Work (Qualifying) at ECU).

Upon completion of the PQP, you will be able to study one of several master's degrees at Edith Cowan University, including master's degrees in business, the Master of Professional Communication, Master of Computer Science, Master of Cyber Security, or Master of Social Work (Qualifying), depending on the stream you complete.

The Post-Graduate Qualifying Program is delivered at ECU Joondalup Campus West, Building 80, 10 Injune Way, Joondalup WA 6027, which is the campus of Edith Cowan College.

No, the PQP is a non-award program. It is designed as a pathway program to prepare students for entry into master's degrees at Edith Cowan University, rather than being a standalone qualification.
