Study options

We give you the flexibility to study what, when and how you want, so you can fit your studies into your busy life.

Study full time or part timeIn most undergraduate degrees you can study full time or part time depending on the number of credit points you take in each trimester. You can even switch between full-time and part-time study throughout most degrees, to suit your personal situation. This means if things change, you’re not locked into a pace that no longer suits you.

Study in the cloud or on campus You have the option to switch between campus and online learning during your course (provided the course and unit is available in both study modes). You can also combine the two study modes and complete some units in online mode and others in campus mode in the same trimester. Our students love the freedom this gives them to balance other priorities, such as family and part-time work.

Study when you are ready We have three study periods during the teaching year. This gives you more choice about when to start your degree and can even enable you to fast-track your study by taking extra units throughout the year. Some students take a trimester off to work or travel, then catch up later. It also allows you to spread your study load, so you can fit your studies into your lifestyle.

Deakin’s trimesters run from March to June (Trimester 1), July to October (Trimester 2) and November to February (Trimester 3). Trimester 3 is optional and subject to availability of units.

Digital tools and resourcesStudents are fully supported with a range of online resources. Through your personalised digital study hub, DeakinSync, you connect with students, learning and assessment experiences, teaching and support staff and potential employers. An experienced student success coach connects with you regularly via Skype and email, providing ongoing support to ensure your personal and professional development.

What’s it like to study online?

Just because you’re not physically attending a campus doesn’t mean you miss out on our support services. Starting with an online orientation, we support Cloud Campus students with specialised peer support programs, language and learning advisers, writing mentors, and more, all helping you develop successful study skills.

Students who study via the Cloud Campus:

• join the online Cloud Student Community

• receive ongoing support from an experienced student success coach via Skype and email

• have remote access to support services and activities

• enjoy access to peer support programs and mentors

• can connect to specialist careers advisers

Pathways to Deakin

The path from Year 12 to university isn’t the only way into Deakin. We welcome students through diverse entry pathways. If you didn’t get the marks you needed, haven’t completed Year 12, or are working and looking for ways to transition into tertiary education, we can help.

Pathways through Deakin Taking a pathway through Deakin means you get to begin the Deakin experience immediately, starting and finishing your study at Deakin.

Complete an associate degree Deakin’s associate degrees in arts and education are two-year, full-time (or part-time equivalent) programs specifically designed for students who would benefit from a supported entry to tertiary study. Completion of a Deakin associate degree provides up to 18 months of credit and guaranteed entry to certain courses.

Transfer between Deakin campuses One of the great things about Deakin is that we have five campuses. Many of our courses are offered at more than one campus and the ATAR required for each campus often differs, but the same high-quality degree is delivered no matter which campus you choose. You can apply to transfer your studies from one campus to another after your first trimester of study, with credit for the subjects already completed (subject to availability and meeting academic criteria).

Transfer between Deakin courses You can apply to study a course with similar subjects or major sequences with a lower ATAR, and use this as a pathway into your ideal course, gaining credit for the subjects already completed. Pathways between Deakin courses include moving from a single degree to a combined course or from a general to a specialist degree. Transfers may be possible following completion of your first trimester of study at Deakin (subject to availability and meeting academic criteria).

Undertake single unit (non-award) study You may wish to undertake single units of study at Deakin, without being enrolled or accepted into a course. These units are subject to fees and do not lead to a degree, but may be credited towards a degree if you succeed in gaining entry to a course at a later stage.

Deakin learning centresDeakin learning centres enable you to begin tertiary study in a supported environment. At the end of your first year at a learning centre, meeting academic requirements, you can apply to transfer to one of our campuses. Find out more on page 9.

Pathways through Deakin College Deakin College provides an excellent pathway for students who do not meet the admission requirements for Deakin courses. Deakin College diplomas are equivalent to the first year of a Deakin undergraduate degree. Upon satisfactory completion of a Deakin College diploma, and subject to meeting academic entrance criteria, domestic graduates from Deakin College are eligible to apply for a Commonwealth Supported Place in the second year of the relevant Deakin undergraduate degree. Deakin College is located at Deakin’s Melbourne Burwood Campus, Geelong Waterfront Campus and Geelong Waurn Ponds Campus, allowing you the opportunity to gain access to Deakin’s facilities and services, and get involved in university life, while undertaking a diploma. deakincollege.edu.au

Pathways through TAFE Use your TAFE study as a stepping stone to study at Deakin. Benefit from having not one but two qualifications and potentially reduce the number of units you need to complete to obtain your degree. deakin.edu.au/TAFE

Complete a guaranteed entry pathway Deakin offers guaranteed entry pathways from a number of TAFE partners in a growing range of disciplines. If you are taking a guaranteed entry pathway course, as long as your study performance meets the required standard, you will be guaranteed a place at Deakin following successful completion of your TAFE course. You will also benefit from up to 18 months of credit towards your Deakin degree. Currently, guaranteed entry pathways are available at Bendigo TAFE, Box Hill Institute, Chisholm, The Gordon, Melbourne Polytechnic, South West Institute of TAFE and TAFE NSW – Riverina Institute. deakin.edu.au/TAFE

Complete a relevant TAFE course If you undertake an eligible TAFE or Registered Training Organisation (RTO) course in a field similar to the Deakin course of your choice, you may gain credit towards your Deakin degree. A wide range of courses leads to credit transfer and recognition and all TAFE qualifications are considered for application to Deakin.

Pathways through other institutions If you’re currently studying at another university and wish to transfer to Deakin to finish your degree, you can apply for credit transfer and recognition. deakin.edu.au/courses/entry-pathways

Pathways through the workforce Deakin students come from all walks of life – not everyone goes straight to university after finishing high school. You may be able to gain entry to Deakin and/or credit towards a Deakin course, based on your work experience or prior industry training. deakin.edu.au/courses/entry-pathways

Deakin Accelerate for VCE students

If you’re a high-achieving VCE student, Accelerate allows you to study two first-year university subjects during Year 12. Studying one subject per trimester through Accelerate gives you a headstart in university studies while providing a potential boost to your ATAR.

There aren’t any enrolment costs for the units you study as part of Deakin Accelerate, except maybe the cost of a textbook. If your subjects are related to the Deakin course you enrol in after you graduate from secondary school, you’ll gain university credit – that’s two units ticked off your uni degree, for free.

Cloud Campus The Cloud Campus is one of Deakin’s five campuses. It is the campus for students who choose to study wholly online, rather than be based at a physical campus. If you study via the Cloud Campus your full university experience is online, including classes, assessments, and discussions with teachers and students.

Combined courseA combination of courses in complementary areas, studied simultaneously, which leads to two degrees, e.g. Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Laws. This means you complete two degrees in less time than it would take to complete them separately.

Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP)A university place for which the government pays a proportion of the tuition costs. Pay up-front and, if eligible, receive a discount.

Computer requirementsTo fully engage with the Deakin learning experiences, students need to have access to and be able to use internet-connected devices. There are minimum computer standards required for your computer, connectivity and your computing capability for effective study at Deakin.

For more information on computer standards, please visit deakin.edu.au/courses/how-to-apply/computing-requirements.

Credit pointFor each subject you successfully complete, you will receive the credit point value of that subject towards your studies.

Credit transfer and recognitionCredit granted towards your Deakin course for relevant approved study, experience or work, satisfactorily completed at Deakin or elsewhere. There are two aspects to credit transfer and recognition:

• credit may be transferred to your Deakin program from completed or partly completed studies you have undertaken at other accredited institutions; and

• credit may be granted on the basis of knowledge and skills acquired through informal learning, e.g. in the workplace.
