Academic Achievement Awards
Undergraduate/Graduate
High academic achievement in diploma, bachelor and graduate diploma studies is recognised by the award of certificates of “Merit” (minimum GPA of 6.5), and “Excellence” (GPA of 7.5 and above). The GPA is calculated on all course grades achieved for the current programme in the prior 1-2 trimesters totalling not less than 60 credits, and not previously counted for an award.
Postgraduate
A “Certificate of Academic Excellence in Postgraduate Studies” is awarded for a GPA of 6.5 or above for the first block of 60 credits (or 90 Level 8 credits for the MIT). A “Certificate of Sustained Academic Excellence in Postgraduate Studies” is awarded for a GPA of 6.5 or above for a subsequent block of 60-90 credits.
A Recognition of Academic Achievement ceremony is held each trimester for presentation of awards. Full details of the awards are in the Student Handbook.
