Enhancing Careers Through Postgraduate Study
You will find this booklet of use if you are trying to make a decision to enter Postgraduate Study, or you are already undertaking Postgraduate Study and wishing to make the most of it. You will find the Career Information booklet series from Graduate Careers Australia most helpful. Unlike other publications in this series this document is not focused on one particular discipline, but on Postgraduate Qualifications in general. When choosing to undertake a particular qualification in a particular discipline it is always recommended that you speak with the institution with which you intend to study and ensure that it meets your own personal and professional needs. Why Further Study? It seems that more and more individuals are choosing to take up Postgraduate Study. Of those enrolled in study in 2006 (Source: DEST Selected Higher Education Statistics 2007) over 25 per cent were in some form of Postgraduate Study (five per cent in a research qualification), up from 16 per cent in 1996. However, the number of people who have Postgraduate qualifications nationwide is only 3.2 per cent, as opposed to the 15 per cent whose highest qualification is a bachelor degree (Source: ‘ABS Education and Work, Australia 6227.0 May 2006’).
