Students who complete at least 36 units of one of these programs, or who transfer out of the Master of Clinical Exercise Physiology, Occupational Therapy, or Physiotherapy after at least 27 units plus 9 units of postgraduate electives, may exit with this qualification instead of completing their full professional master's degree.
