Non-Award Study (Individual Subject)
Nan Tien Institute’s non-award program allows students to study single subjects without the long-term commitments, pre-requisite restrictions, or assignment workload of postgraduate award study.
Non-award students can enrol in subjects from any of our postgraduate courses (Applied Buddhist Studies, Health and Social Wellbeing, Humanistic Buddhism or Mental Health). For a full list of available subjects, please visit our online timetable.
Our highly flexible teaching structure means that non-award students can choose to either:
- just attend the five days of on-campus lectures (although pre-reading is highly recommended to enhance your learning experiences in class); OR
- complete the pre-reading, on-campus lectures, and follow-up supported online study and assignments. Satisfactory performance in all of these elements will allow you to receive a grade and credit points for the subject, which could be put towards future postgraduate study with Nan Tien Institute (NTI).
All non-award students receive a Certificate of Attendance upon completion of a subject with NAN TIEN INSTITUTE.
