Flexible learning
and professional
qualifications
Study is more than just a classroom. A flexible approach
means an education tailored just for you.
You choose a university course because it helps you secure the job that
you want, but the modern world changes quickly and you need to be
able to tailor your education to match it. As a Deakin student, you can
choose to study on-campus, full or part-time or even fast-track your
studies by studying over summer. You can alter your study program with
different electives, and in some cases have your prior studies recognised
for academic credit.
By having industry representatives on our course advisory boards, Deakin
courses continue to keep pace with real-world practice, giving Deakin
graduates an edge over their competitors. We want to help you get into
the industry straight after graduation and were committed to finding the
most flexible way to do that while delivering a quality education.
Campus learning
Classes allow campus learning students to focus on a large amount
of information in a formal teaching environment, while seminars give
students access to smaller group discussions and a tutor who can help
out on a more personal level. Assessment may take a variety of forms,
including written work and tests undertaken in class, participation
laboratory sessions and final examinations each trimester.
Large university, close community: vibrant and friendly

Deakin is one of Australias largest universities, with more than 36 000

SIYU XIE
DUELI and bachelor of nursing student
Country of origin: china
Geelong Waurn Ponds Campus
After two years of studying in Beijing, Siyu moved to Australia to
complete her bachelor's degree. However, she needed to improve
her English language skills first, which is where DUELI came in.
I started my Australian journey at DUELI in Geelong and it was
sensational. Not only did I improve my English skills, I made
lifetime friends and became part of the wonderful Australian
culture, she says.
DUELI offered direct access to Siyu's chosen course at Deakin,
something that appealed to both Siyu and her father. DUELI
stood out because of its pathway program. Also, knowing English
is a big career advantage in China. Another bonus is that some of
Siyus former classmates had also chosen DUELI.
Siyu has now completed her Bachelor of Nursing at Deakin and
is a Registered Nurse in Australia, where she is required to use
English every day.
My writing and speaking skills have greatly improved thanks to
presentations, debates and written assignments I even learned
some funny Australian slang!

Geelong Waterfront Campus
Siyu enjoyed meeting people from all over the world at DUELI and
is planning to meet up with some friends in their home countries.
I now have friends from Vietnam, India, Fiji, Germany, and South
Korea everywhere!' she says.

Arizz Azhar
Bachelor of Design (Architecture)
Country of origin: Malaysia
Passionate about Architecture, Deakin's Bachelor of Design
(Architecture) was an easy choice for Arizz. 'I had heard
good things about Architecture at Deakin from the Board of
Architects in Malaysia and after having a look at the course
structure, I found I was attracted by the mix of design subjects
with real world applications.'
Arizz says the mix of practical industry skills, theory and
design meant Deakin offered a perfect balance. 'Deakin has
a good relationship with its successful alumni community in
the professional world and this is a big advantage. I felt that

and employment opportunities for me, and so far it has done
nothing less.'
Arizz participated in Deakins Intercultural Dialogue through Design
(iDiDe) program, partaking in the iDiDe India Study Tour in 2013.
'The highlight of the trip for me was the collaborative engagement
with The Sushant School of Art & Architecture (SSAA) housed at
Ansal University in Gurgaon, India. The workshop assembled a
range of experiences and resulted in a high profile exhibition at
The Australian High Commission in India.
Now confident of his abilities in Architecture, Arizz is keen to get
into the workforce. 'For now, I can see the working world in my
view and I am eager to walk into it with assurance,' he says.

social change. Much of the recent increase in human knowledge is linked
with developments in media and communication. We have study options
in a diverse range of disciplines related to Media and Communication,
including animation, film studies, journalism, media and communication,
photography, professional and creative writing and publicrelations.

Deakins creative arts courses offer you a range of skills in one discipline

forms of art.

issues, as well as skills in research and analysis to help deal with
increasingly complex work.

multidisciplinary responses. You will gain discipline-based knowledge in
order to understand how societies function in local and global settings;
what forces and great events have shaped the modern world; and what
are the main factors shaping peoples lives in national and international
contexts today. Study areas include anthropology, Australian studies,
history, international relations, philosophy, politics and policy studies,
and sociology.
International studies
This course will enable you to develop a systematic understanding of
the international forces shaping government, business and community
life in contemporary Australia and the world. An important component
of the course is a genuine international study experience and the
opportunity to gain cross-cultural experience through studying in
Australia and taking part in study and/or internships in another country.

cultural studies. You can choose to specialise in language studies (Arabic,

Kalvin Leung
Bachelor of Commerce
Country of origin: Hong kong
Melbourne burwood Campus
Keen to develop a broad knowledge of business, Kalvin chose
Deakin because of its diverse teaching style. 'I wanted to gain an
overall knowledge of business while remaining able to focus my
learning. I think the Bachelor of Commerce does that really well
with its core units and multiple majors to select from.'
Kalvin says the course gave him a sound knowledge of
marketing, supply chain management and e-business
components. However, it was his own contribution to the
Faculty of Business and Law that was most valuable. 'At Deakin
I had the opportunity to contribute to the Faculty as a student
mentor team leader.'
'The Student Mentor Program offered at Deakin has significantly
helped me develop into the person I am today. I have acquired
many core skills through this program and many invaluable
experiences which I can convey to my future employer. Now, I

world is ready for me.'

universities offered specific courses in IT Security and Deakin has
a great reputation and helpful student support services. I studied
for a year at MIBT and then moved on to my bachelors degree.
Deakin is so well-organised and hard work pays off with high
employability when you graduate.
Tommy says that the support and knowledge his lecturers have
given him has been invaluable. The lecturers were helpful even
after I graduated and suggested jobs I could apply for. I'll soon
start work for Honeywell, a global technology leader in energy
efficiency, clean energy generation, security and safety, with
branches in more than 60 countries.'
Tommy says that beyond his degree, the Australian lifestyle and
multicultural environment also changed his life. He now wants
a future in Australia where he feels he can use his qualifications
and skills to 'make a difference and bring something special to the

Eun Jeong Ji
Bachelor of Nursing
Country of Origin: south Korea
Warrnambool Campus
Working as a nurse is more than just a vocation for Eun Jeong
it is a way of life.
Deakin was always Eun Jeong's first choice. 'This was the only
place that offered a pathway, so I could go into the nursing
workforce almost straight away.'
Eun Jeong went to DUELI prior to starting her Bachelor of
Nursing and learning a language in Australia was quite different
from what she expected. The mix of direct learning style and
blend of practical, hands-on learning was a pleasant surprise.
'What I like about Deakin is that the learning style is very
practical, in both lectures and tutorials. I believe that students
are more competent after studying at Deakin.'
Happy with her decision to study at Deakin, her studies have
since been able to broaden her horizons. 'Australia gave me the
opportunity to find the real me.'

Bachelor of Bachelor of Business (Sport
Management)
Country of origin: Argentina
Football is a passion for Carlos Drechsler. Graduating from
the Bachelor of Business (Sport Management) last year, he
has followed his passion to go into football coaching and
management. 'After being a professional soccer player and then
moving to coaching and management, I was looking for a specific,
high-level education to develop the required skill set and boost
my career opportunities. This course and its high standard of
education is not available in my home country.'
Carlos says he became interested in the Sport Management
course because of its reputation and references, and how it was
organised for content and structure. Deakins Sport Management
courses have been ranked No. 1 in Australia and No. 11 in the
world by Sport Business International Postgraduate Sports Course
Guide (2012). 'The teaching staff always showed genuine interest
and desire to help, assist, clear doubts, discuss and debate topics,
as well as advise on issues that didnt necessarily concern them
directly. They were always responsive and of valuable assistance,'
says Carlos.
Overall, he found the university experience very positive:
'Choosing to leave home to come to Deakin was a difficult decision,
but it proved successful. The whole experience in both education
and life has changed many of my views and ideas for the better,
making me a more capable professional.'

In addition to tuition fees, all campus international students are required

to pay Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) and an application fee.
OSHC service providers offer concessional rates for OSHC paid at the
offer acceptance stage for visa length cover. The amount payable will be
included in your Offer Letter. Students should be aware that they may be

2015 undergraduate unit fees

The table to the right shows the 2015 international student
undergraduate coursework tuition fees per credit point for each of the
various discipline clusters at Deakin.
Before you can calculate the total cost of your units in 2015, find out
which units you will study in your course, what clusters they belong to
and therefore the rate per credit point which will be charged.
Note that a normal full-time study load is eight units per year.
The actual cost of your year of study is determined when you enrol
based on the units you have chosen. Your offer letter only shows
indicative fees not the actual cost of your study. When you pay your first
trimester indicative fee, it will be credited to your enrolment. If there
is a difference between your initial course payment and the actual fee
liability after enrolment, you will need to pay any outstanding amount.
Over-payments will be credited to your next trimester fees.
The indicative fee for one trimester as listed on your Offer Letter must be
paid before a CoE (Confirmation of Enrolment) can be issued.
Campus learning students
Please note: The above indicative fees are in Australian dollars and are correct as of
February 2014 and are subject to change. For international students commencing in
2015, it is expected that fees per credit point will increase by no more than seven per
cent per year.
As well as tuition fees, students pay:
Examples of how to calculate your fees
OSHC for the full duration of their visa,

a once-only, non-refundable application fee of A$55*.
Millie has enrolled in a Bachelor of Commerce and chooses six units

from the Accounting, Economics, Commerce, Administration cluster
and two units from Humanities. Her annual tuition fee in 2015 will be:
6 x A$2754 plus 2 x A$2447 = A$24 418.
Eduardo intends to complete a Bachelor of Arts, with all units from
the Foreign Languages, Visual and Performing Arts cluster. His annual
tuition fee in 2015 will be: 8 x A$2922 = A$23 376.
Anna has decided to study a Bachelor of Information Technology (Games
Design and Development). In her first year, she will complete seven units
in the Computing cluster, along with one elective taken from the Public
Relations cluster. Her annual tuition fee in 2015 will be:
7 x A$2917 plus 1 x A$2564 = A$22 983.
Cloud (online) students

Note for all students

or the cost of optional, extracurricular or recreational activities such as
membership of fitness clubs or gyms, participation in sport and so on.
