We take the following factors into consideration when assessing whether your qualification is in a field of study highly relevant to your nominated occupation:
* whether you hold a specialised qualification or whether your qualification has a major area of study which VETASSESS has identified as being suitable for the occupation in Australia
* the number of units completed in the related field (for example, this is usually at least 33% for a 3 year Bachelor degree course, or 25% for a 4 year Bachelor degree course)
* the progression of studies throughout the course
* the depth and breadth of studies in the field of study relevant to the nominated occupation
* the outcomes of the qualification for employment in the country concerned
* course requirements: thesis, major projects, internships/work placements
