Why study the Pre-Master's?
- Flexible entry and English language requirements mean you can gain access to an exclusive Group of Eight university.
- Our Bridging to Pre-Master’s semester model means you begin your master’s subjects after just one semester, and then progress straight into second semester.
- You receive extra support in developing your English and academic study skills.
- With all the preparation, you still only add an additional four months to your degree.
Program Overview
The Pre-Master’s Program is taught over two semesters. In the first Bridging semester, you’ll develop your study and research skills, and English academic language in writing, reading, listening and speaking.
To complete your Pre-Master’s Program and graduate into the second semester of your chosen Master’s degree at the University of Adelaide, you will need to study 5 courses in the Bridging semester and 4 courses related to your chosen masters degree in the Pre-Master’s semester.
Program Options
By the second Pre-Master’s semester, you’ll begin studying university subjects that are part of your chosen master’s program. On successful completion of the Pre-Master’s Program, you’ll receive credit for these subjects and jump straight into the second semester of your degree.
