Full-time students can finish the GDipArts in two trimesters, while part-time learners have up to four years to complete it.

Deepen your expertise in Pacific regions, traditions, and linguistic heritage. This program introduces you to influential figures—intellectuals, policymakers, advocates, and creatives—from Pacific communities. Explore how colonial histories have shaped Pasifika societies and engage with contemporary Pacific challenges.
