Why Swinburne?

Flexible study options

You want study that fits into your life. That’s why we offer a range of options. Many lectures and tutorials are held in the evenings or weekends, making them accessible to those who work full-time. You may also be able to study through distance learning, or choose online or part-time study. Some units are offered in block release mode, which means you’ll cover large amounts of course content in bulk by attending seminars over a few days each month. It’s a great way to finish your course and get your qualifications sooner.

State-of-the-art campus and facilities

Swinburne’s main campus in Hawthorn is bordered by bustling Glenferrie Road, with Glenferrie train station right on our doorstep. Our facilities support our ethos of entrepreneurship and innovation, and rigorous research – with purpose-built labs, classrooms and shared workspaces. Our Innovation Precinct enables interdisciplinary and industry collaboration, and our Advanced Manufacturing and Design Centre is renowned as a hub for world-leading research, education and training.

Strong industry connections

Our strong links with business and industry mean you’ll graduate with the skills that employers are seeking. We partner with leading Australian and global organisations to offer students authentic workplace experiences and many of our programs are professionally accredited by industry bodies.

A focus on research

Swinburne is an internationally renowned research-intensive university. We have five key research institutes across data science, health innovation, smart cities, social innovation and manufacturing futures, and we are recognised globally as leaders in science, technology, innovation, business and design.

Educational leaders

Our reputation for superior education and research means we attract highly qualified academics and educational leaders. You’ll learn from those who are at the top of their fields with extensive experience in industry and in the classroom.

Sherwin can’t count the times when something would pop up at work and he’d think, ‘I know this, we just covered this in class yesterday’. He readily admits that, without completing a double master degree, he wouldn’t have progressed this far at such a young age. He’s currently the Head of Experience Design at Ippon Technologies, a multinational IT consulting firm.

Graduate certificates and diplomas

A graduate certificate or diploma can provide specialised skills, allow you to explore a personal interest area and can enhance your career options. They can also be a great way to test an area of study before committing to a full master degree. Additionally, you may consider this as a pathway into a master – successful completion could see you meeting the master entry requirements that you didn’t previously meet.

Master by coursework

Our postgraduate programs have a career-focused curriculum. Taught by academics who are engaged with industry in the areas they teach, our courses equip you with the skills and knowledge required to succeed in your chosen field.

Postgraduate study can help you stand out in a competitive job market, gain specialised skills and achieve your career goals sooner. It can also provide the opportunity to deeply explore an area of study or research in which you can really make your mark.

Our postgraduate offerings range from graduate certificates and diplomas to master degrees by research or coursework as well as doctorates. Several of our programs are structured as nested suites, meaning you can undertake a graduate certificate first, continue into a diploma and then go on to a master – with the option to exit with a qualification at any one of these points.

Double master

Double master degrees are a great way to broaden your study experience and are highly respected by employers. They combine two areas of study and, on completion, you’ll be awarded two degrees. Look out for our Global Leadership Program, which offers two postgraduate qualifications from two leading universities – both Swinburne and Northeastern University in Boston, USA.

Professional master

A professional master is a great option, particularly if you’re moving directly from undergraduate into postgraduate study. These degrees are designed to help you transition smoothly from the classroom to the workplace and aim to enhance graduate employability both in Australia and internationally.

Advanced master

Advanced master degrees are designed to help you develop specialised knowledge and research skills. Students interested in exploring research techniques or pursuing a PhD or research career should consider these programs.

Higher degrees by research

Swinburne’s research degrees allow you to plan, conduct and manage a substantial research project. As part of your course, you will engage in critical thinking and develop knowledge of ethical practice, intellectual property and commercialisation. Our research degrees give you access to specialist facilities, world-class researchers, training and support. For more, visit www.swinburne.edu.au/research/research-degrees
