[UNSW] How to succeed in postgraduate study
Tips on how to get the most out of your student experience.
Whether it’s a shift in career direction or building on existing skills and knowledge, postgraduate study can get you where you want to go.
Have conversations that build your network and expand your thinking
As a UNSW postgraduate student, you’ll be part of a diverse and passionate community of students and academics.
You’ll also have several opportunities to undertake Work Integrated Learning and career development programs. These services and programs are a great way to expand your networks and gain new experiences.
Take advantage of flexible learning opportunities
We all have busy schedules, but there are plenty of ways you can shape your study to fit your life and priorities.
Flexible learning options are built into many of UNSW’s postgraduate programs, including evening classes, online components and intensive courses. “Having classes available after 5pm is the only reason I am able to do my master’s,” says Olivia. “I’m very grateful for these options. Without this, I wouldn’t be able to study while working.”Our three-term calendar, UNSW 3+, allows you to leverage the flexibility to spread your study load across the year, studying fewer courses per term to enable more in-depth learning. You only need to enrol once per year, which means you can plan your year to achieve your unique goals and ambitions.
