Graduate Diploma of Information Systems
Holmes Institute, Multi-campus (Melbourne, Sydney, Gold Coast), Australia
About this program
The Graduate Diploma of Information Systems is Holmes Institute's embedded two trimester exit award from the Master of Information Systems: a third party education agent listing (IDP) directly quotes Holmes as stating that this award 'consists of 8 units' after two trimesters, sitting between the 4 unit Graduate Certificate of Information Systems and the full 16 unit Master's degree. It is a real, currently CRICOS registered qualification (102297G, Course Sector: Higher Education, 52 week duration, $25,000 tuition) but has no dedicated marketing page on the current holmes.edu.au site and no historical page in the Wayback Machine.
Because this Graduate Diploma is confirmed as the whole of the Master of Information Systems' Year 1 (8 units), its curriculum maps directly onto that confirmed real unit list.
