Military Applicants and Students

For many years the Emergency Management & Resilience Centre has offered postgraduate courses in Emergency Management for military personnel which have run separately to our civilian courses. 

We continues to support applicants and students from the military services, however, experience has taught us that student gain much more benefit when we bring all of our students together.   Overall student gain a better learning environment, class discussions are more engaging, and networking opportunities across all sectors is improved.  From October 2022 our Postgraduate Certificate / MSc Emergency Management & Resilience courses will all run together. 

These courses are designed to meet the needs of experienced personnel and entry onto the course will take into account your experience gained from military service.  We recognise that many people within the Services are highly skilled and exceptionally trained but this is not always backed by formally recognised qualifications.  Military personnel (uniformed or civilian) often find they do not need to meet any further entry criteria above their experience after speaking with us.

You will also find our courses on the ELCAS website and you can use Enhanced Learning Credits towards payment for the course.   Our ELCAS registration number is 1332.

There are three courses to choose from:

• Postgraduate Certificate Emergency Management & Resilience (Mixed campus and online sessions) 1 year
• MSc Emergency Management & Resilience (Mixed campus and online sessions) 1 year (full time) or 2/3 years (part time)
• MSc Emergency Management & Resilience (100% Distance Learning) 1 year (full-time) or 2 years (part-time)
