Flinders University offers a graduate coursework program in Maritime Archaeology including the Graduate Certificate in Maritime Archaeology. The Department of Archaeology has been teaching maritime archaeology successfully at both undergraduate and postgraduate level since 1996. The Graduate Certificate is designed to provide professional knowledge and expertise in maritime archaeology particularly for practitioners working in related fields as consultants and for government agencies. It may also provide an avenue for entry into the other graduate courses in maritime
