UNITEC will award its first Master of Computing at the 10 April graduation ceremony. In the two years since the programme began, 166 students have enrolled, many of them lecturers in the NACCQ sector who need to upgrade their qualifications. Classes are held at weekends in Auckland and Wellington.
29 students have enrolled for the UNITEC Graduate Diploma in Computing - 120 credits at levels 6 and 7, taking one year fulltime or two years part time.
A UNITEC proposal to offer a "professional" doctorate (DComp) will be reviewed by an NZQA panel in May. It involves 120 credits of coursework (weekend classes, spread over one year fulltime or two years part time) and a 240 credit thesis. If approved it will be the first of its kind in New Zealand.
