New students

Welcome to the Master of Cultural Materials Conservation at the Grimwade Centre for Cultural Materials Conservation. We look forward to meeting you and introducing you to cultural materials conservation. Now that you have received your offer and are about to enrol in your first subjects, you may have few further questions about the program and the way it is delivered. Below are a few points that may clarify some of your questions.

Resources

Conservation Student Resources on CANVAS

Up to date subject information and notification of events

After students enrol in any subject, you will obtain automatic access to our Canvas online learning system titled ‘COM_000184 Conservation student resources’. This is a community that all conservation students have access to. Here we post Grimwade Centre procedures, our COVIDSafe plan, up to date information and student or other events. Make sure you log onto this regularly and set up your notifications to receive announcements via your student email (see Can I customise my Canvas notifications?)

Student Pathways

Students undertaking the 200-point pathway will complete 100 points of compulsory subjects in their first year and can enrol full time or part time at the beginning or mid-year. In the first year you need to enrol in the compulsory units to ensure a smooth pathway through the Masters program and to meet the pre-requisites for your second year of study. It is in the second year that students will have the option to select 3-4 graduate elective units up to 50 points and select a topic for your minor thesis. You will hear more about this during the program.

What about the Chemistry Bridging Course?

If you have not completed chemistry to 25 points at university level, then we recommend you enrol in the one week Chemistry Bridging Course.
