Further, where study will take place in Australia, students must provide evidence of current Australian health insurance cover or additionally must pay the fee for Overseas Student Health Cover. ATAX students are also liable for the Miscellaneous Annual Fund Fee. The Miscellaneous Annual Fund fee is a contribution towards services and amenities for the University community and is compulsory for all students. ATAX0401Tax Policy is the only compulsory course for the MTax. ATAX recommends that this be completed towards the latter stages of the degree.
Students can choose the remaining seven courses from the selection below.
It is possible to study each of the postgraduate courses as separate, stand-alone courses. This is often useful for students who may wish to 'test the water' with postgraduate studies, perhaps prior to embarking on a postgraduate degree program or for those who wish to supplement their existing skills and knowledge in a particular field of study, perhaps related to their work. Whilst Single Course Study does not lead to the award of a qualification, postgraduate level credits are accrued, which may later be recognised for credit towards the relevant degree program. If you have undertaken relevant postgraduate study in other institutions or undertaken CPA Australia's Professional Program or completed the ICAA Professional Year, it may be possible to receive exemptions for certain ATAX courses. Exemptions based on prior postgraduate study may be available where courses are at the same standard and cover the same broad area as ATAX courses.
