International First Year Diploma Business
The University of Tasmania International First Year Diploma – Business (UTAS IFYD-Bus) programme has been developed to meet the needs of students who are academically capable of undertaking undergraduate study at university but require extra Academic English language support in their first year. These students will also benefit from a targeted introduction to academic, cultural, social and practical aspects of study at the University of Tasmania which may differ from the diverse international backgrounds they come from.
Course structure
The course structure is designed to allow students to complete the course in two semesters. Entry points occur at the beginning of Semester One (February), Semester Two (July) and the Spring Semester (late October). Semester dates align with the standard University of Tasmania semesters. Semesters consist of 13 weeks of study followed by a one week exam period.
