COURSE DESCRIPTION
Our Graduate Certificate in International Addiction Studies is a unique online program. It provides a broad understanding of drug addiction and deep insights into international research in the field.
The course is delivered online through three of the world’s leading universities in addiction sciences: The University of Adelaide; Virginia Commonwealth University; and the Institute of Psychiatry, King’s College London. On completion of the degree, you’ll be recognised as a graduate of all three universities.
What will you do?
You can study from anywhere in the world as you:
cover the essential areas of addiction science in three core courses
work through forward-thinking lectures, readings and modules
access multiple libraries and resources
develop international networks.
Where could it take you?
This certificate will be beneficial in a range of professions that interact with addiction. Maybe you’re in law enforcement or social work and want to support changes in your community. Perhaps you’re a counsellor looking to take on a specialised role in addiction. You might be a research scientist or a public health graduate pursuing innovation and policy changes.
Degree Structure
The proposed program is nested within the existing Master of Science in Addiction Studies which has been taught since 2008 and is jointly offered with Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU, USA) and King’s College London (KCL, UK).
The Graduate Certificate will have three 4-unit courses, one taught by each university.
