Overview
This advanced diploma provides training in chemistry, biochemistry, physics and mathematics, including organic chemistry and calculus-based physical chemistry at a level comparable to second- and third-year university coursework. Students gain hands-on experience with laboratory instrumentation such as NMR, HPLC, gas chromatography and atomic absorption spectroscopy, alongside coursework in analytical chemistry, quality assurance and a technical capstone project. The programme is designed to prepare graduates for direct employment in laboratory settings or for transfer into related university degrees. The programme runs three years (six semesters) at the Main Windsor Campus with a September start. Graduates work in fields including pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, environmental science, petroleum, nuclear technology and materials science, in laboratory and quality-control roles, with reported starting salaries in these fields ranging from about $40,000 to over $100,000 annually.
