The postgraduate programme extends over a minimum of two academic years and a maximum of three academic years for full-time study. Most students tend to finish the programme in two academic years.

Courses are offered on a modular basis to allow students to focus on important areas of study. There are 12 modules in one academic year and each module is six to eight weeks long, including the examination week.

Students usually take two-semester courses, five subjects and 1 elective for each course.
