Postgraduate coursework - Melbourne and Victorian regional campuses
Find your perfect postgraduate course. Gain a global perspective, learn new skills and advance your career.
Your first step is to find a course and check the academic and English language requirements.
If you don't meet the requirements, we may make you a conditional offer. This means you may be offered a place, which will be reserved for up to one year while you improve your English or academic performance.
Need help to meet the requirements?
La Trobe University's Postgraduate Enabling Program (PEP) provides a pathway into a range of La Trobe Master's degrees if you don’t have the academic and/or English requirements to gain direct entry.
Ensure your application is submitted in time
Some courses start earlier than the standard semester, term or study period date. Applications for these courses close one week before the course commences.
