Lincoln University's Postgraduate Certificate in Applied Science will take your learning to the next level in solving problems using science. Human progress has relied heavily on the conversion of science into technology – in agriculture, food, industry, medicine, communications, transport, and now, increasingly and essentially, in the management and conservation of our biosphere and its resources.

The Postgraduate Certificate in Applied Science offers a highly flexible programme in which students can select courses from our Master's programmes in Agricultural Science, Science, Applied Science and Horticultural Science.

Staircase Your Degree

You can use the Postgraduate Certificate in Applied Science to staircase your way into a higher qualification. After completing the certificate, you may choose to add one or two more semesters of study and upgrade your qualification to a Postgraduate Diploma or a Master's degree. To ensure that you select the right courses for this, discuss your options with a course advisor of the Master's-level qualification you are aiming at.

You must have a relevant degree with at least a B- average in the 300 level courses and final year (full-time equivalent).
