Graduate Diploma in Viticulture
GD.Vit
|
| Location: | Waite Campus |
| Duration: | 1 year
(full-time or
part-time equivalent)
|
| Degree/Award: | Graduate Diploma |
The Viticulture and Wine education programs have an international reputation for excellence. The Waite campus houses state-of-the-art facilities including its own vineyard and Hickinbotham Roseworthy Wine Science Laboratory.
The Masters provides advanced knowledge in all aspects of modern grape-growing including: advanced production techniques, vineyard establishment, mineral nutrition, advanced vine physiology and biotechnology, pest and disease control, efficient water use strategies, and the engineering of production and irrigation.
Students may also gain a basic working knowledge of wine production, and some aspects of the global marketing of wine, which reflects trends in the wine industry towards an integrated approach ‘from grape to glass’.
Students undertaking the Graduate Diploma will take the same courses as those undertaking the first year of the Masters program - satisfactory completion will enable a student to transfer to the Masters program. Graduate Diploma students must complete the three core courses plus five electives.
