/ -- The Union Ministry of Human Resource Development has announced that the Association of Indian Universities will issue equivalence certificates for Australian transcripts which include all units recognised by the degree-issuing institution. This arrangement will also extend to any units taught as part of a pathway qualification.
Students from India completing the UNSW Diploma in Engineering or Diploma in Science will have their qualifications officially recognised in India.
A Diploma student will be studying courses equivalent to first-year undergraduates which are accredited by UNSW Sydney and benefit from additional support during their studies. Upon successful completion, a Diploma program student will progress directly to year 2 of the undergraduate degree. Students will receive two qualifications - the diploma and a degree - in the same timeframe as for a standard undergraduate degree.
Mr. Amit Dasgupta, founding Country Director in India for University of New South Wales, Sydney said, "Starting calendar 2020, there will be three intakes each year for the UNSW Diploma programs. Students will complete their Diploma in time to commence their second year in UNSW Term 1, Term 2 or Term 3 respectively."
