[Print-friendly version]

Post-nominals are the letters you can add after your name after you have graduated from your degree at QUT.

QUT has set some guidelines for what these post-nominals will be based on the type and subject of your degree.

You should refer to the QUT Academic Policy and Programs Unit to see the abbreviation used (PDF).

There are two lists of abbreviations. Firstly the abbreviation of the award level and then the abbreviation of the award name.

Example

Bachelor is abbreviated to 'B' and Applied Science is abbreviated to AppSc. So if you have graduated with a Bachelor level degree in Applied Science, you can put BAppSc after your name.

Abbreviation of qualifications

If you have qualifications from institutions in addition to QUT please refer to the Abbreviation of Qualifications Guidelines (PDF, 136KB) that provide the convention of ordering qualifications after your name and the abbreviations of the names of other universities.
