Graduate with a qualification in a vital nursing specialisation.

Mental Health Nurses are specialist registered nurses with key responsibilities to assess, plan and provide care for people who are often vulnerable and in crisis. Advance your nursing career with the Graduate Diploma in Mental Health Nursing, which would enhance your ability to deliver recovery focused care in a variety of mental health settings.
Professionally recognised

This diploma is a core requirement that can be used in your application to be credentialed by the Australian College of Mental Health Nurses, which will allow you to practice as a recognised Mental Health Nurse. Upon graduation, you will be able to access a Graduate Diploma allowance under the Victorian Public Mental Health Nurses award and seek promotional positions that require this qualification.
Learn from the best

RMIT University is at the forefront of nursing education and research. We are one of the longest running, and oldest providers of nursing education in Australia, with a history of industry partnership and strong graduate employability for over 40 years. The Graduate Diploma in Mental Health Nursing is delivered by experienced mental health nurses with strong industry connections.

During your studies, you will have the flexibility to specialise in either advanced automotive design and development or automotive manufacturing.

Using contemporary engineering methods and computational and experimental tools, including advanced computer-aided engineering software such as LS-DYNA, you’ll gain hands-on experience in several state-of-the-art experimental facilities—including the full-scale Vehicle Wind Tunnel, Driverless Vehicles Lab, Green Engines Research Laboratory and Vehicle NVH Laboratory.

The Master of Engineering (International Automotive Engineering) promotes hands-on practice by incorporating a project that will enable you to apply the learned technologies to a real-world automotive system application.

This degree focuses on sustainable design and manufacturing practices based on the entire lifecycle (from 'cradle to grave') of vehicles. This incorporates the design for disposal and recycle, disassembly, lifecycle assessment, alternative fuels, and powertrains and light structures.

Through project-based learning and the exploration of real-life problems with industry peers, you’ll develop a comprehensive understanding of the product lifecycle and systems design of modern automobiles and associated technologies. You’ll also have the opportunity to complete work experience with multinational companies, enhancing your employment opportunities in the global job market.

Develop your advanced research skills and contribute to new developments in health and biomedical sciences.

This approach brings together clinical and basic researchers who explore the boundaries between the disciplines. Findings inform clinical teaching and advance the treatment of patients.

Projects can involve more than 120 researchers including academic staff, postdoctoral fellows, research assistants, support staff, honours and postgraduate students. Research is undertaken at RMIT's Bundoora campus in the purpose-built biosciences facility. The building's shared spaces promote a collaborative and multidisciplinary approach to science.

Under expert supervision, you will develop your skills and join researchers already active in:

• Cardiovascular disease, stroke and thrombosis
• Chronic respiratory disease
• Comparative biochemistry
• Endocrinology and metabolic disease (obesity, diabetes and fatty liver disease)
• Gastrointestinal diseases
• Nanosafe Australia
• Natural products, drug discovery and new therapeutics
• Neuropharmacology and neuroinflammatory diseases
• Nutrition and exercise physiology and biochemistry
• Skin biology and tissue repair
