As COVID-19 impacts our community, our priority is continuing to deliver a world-class education while ensuring the wellbeing of our students. That’s why we’ve introduced our new term structure: allowing you a smooth entry to university study while remaining on track to complete your degree on time.
With terms starting every six weeks, you’ll commence your study online and be ready to join us on campus once face-to-face teaching resumes. More intakes mean greater flexibility to balance study with your other important life commitments. With the first term commencing in July 2020, you can get started on a degree sooner.
Whether it’s online or on campus, you’ll be developing the skills and knowledge your future employers are looking for.
We look forward to saying hello.
