A message from

the Vice-Chancellor

Martin Bean At RMIT we focus on giving everyone the chance to be their best, shape their future and belong.

That’s what our Ready for Life and Work strategy is all about and thanks to the passion of our extraordinary people we’re making it a reality.

We exist to prepare our students for workplaces that are rapidly evolving and we play a part in shaping a changing world.

It began in 1887 when Francis Ormond had a vision for helping workers acquire real-world skills. The people of Melbourne matched his enthusiasm to start a very practical place of learning where students would leave ready for employment.

We still live this vision today – but now on a global scale.

RMIT has been part of every new development in work and industry since our inception.

As society and the economy have become more sophisticated and complex, RMIT has grown and changed alongside.

Now, we’re a global university of design, technology and enterprise, with more than 93,000 students and 10,000 amazing teachers and staff who proudly live and breathe our purpose every day.

We’re passionate about the communities we’re part of and we’re driven to make a purposeful contribution.

We shape the world with our research and impactful partnerships with industry, government and enterprise.

We provide life-changing experiences when we give our students their first, second or even third opportunity to prepare for the world of work they aspire to.

Today, more than ever, the transformational power of education is lifelong, generations deep and worldwide.

The one certainty is more and greater change in every industry and every location.

So with the world unlike it’s ever been before, we’re focused on ensuring our students are ready for life and work, whatever form that takes.

At RMIT, as we look to 2021 and beyond, we’re excited about the possibilities.

Martin Bean CBEVice-Chancellor and President

Higher Education

REW offers the English for Academic Purposes (EAP) program, which, if successfully completed, gives you direct entry to university without the need to take a formal English test.

The program prepares you for success at university by:

n teaching you academic language and university-level study skills

n using materials relevant to academic coursework n developing your skills in independent learning and group work

Each level of study takes 10 weeks full-time to complete. Your total study time will depend on the level you need to achieve to enter your chosen course.

We will place you in a class that matches your most recent IELTS or other recognised English language proficiency test results, which can be no more than 12 months old. The table below shows the test results required for different levels.

If you do not have an IELTS score (or English test equivalent) you can sit a placement test at RMIT English Worldwide.

RMIT English Worldwide (REW) is a leading language centre with more than 50 years experience.

Course entry requirements — English language proficiency

Unless you gained your qualification in a recognised English-speaking country, you are required to provide current evidence of English language proficiency for admission to RMIT University.

You can provide your results from one of these three options:

n an accepted English language proficiency test

n an accepted English language provider

n a recognised Australian or international qualification taught in English

If you do not meet the standard of English required via an accepted English language proficiency test, RMIT English Worldwide (REW) offers an English language program. See page 19 for more information.

— Academic requirements

Every RMIT course has its own specific set of entry requirements.

You will find them listed as an Australian grade on each course summary on the RMIT website.

You can visit our country equivalency page to find what the required score in your qualification would be.

For example, 70 per cent in the Australian Year 12 was equivalent to 454 in the Chinese Gao Kao in 2019.

— Additional requirements

For some courses, you also need to complete selection tasks as part of your application. These may include:

n submitting a portfolio n completing a preselection kit n attending an interview (in person or via phone or Skype)

Work experience may be required or used for alternative entry for some courses.

Fees and important dates — Important fee information

n The course information and fees in this publication apply to students starting courses between 1 January and 31 December 2021.

n All fees are quoted in Australian dollars ($AU) and apply to RMIT University’s Australian campuses only.

n RMIT’s application fee is non-refundable, but will be credited to your tuition fee deposit once you accept your offer and start your course.

n For Higher Education fees, tuition fees are rounded up to the nearest $10 per credit point increment.

n Similarly, for Vocational Education and preparatory students, the annual course fees are rounded up the nearest $250.

— Capitol Theatre

Designed by celebrated architects Marion Griffin and Walter Burley Griffin, the Capitol is one of the most important cinemas in Australian history. The venue, constructed in 1924, has been reimagined by RMIT and Six Degrees Architects as a contemporary hub for education and culture.

The Capitol hosts screenings, theatre productions, talks and workshops, and gives our students opportunities to participate in exhibitions, live productions, conferences and many other experiences.

— Storey Hall

First built as the Hibernian Hall in 1887, this historic RMIT building was an important symbol of social and political protest. It was remodelled as the iconic Storey Hall in 1995, when it received an ultra-modern extension by ARM Architecture, featuring geometric-shaped windows and tiles. The purple colour used throughout the interior recalls the hall's earlier life as a place for feminist debate, and the powerful green facade acknowledges the building’s Irish heritage.

The building is now home to the RMIT Gallery and includes a large auditorium, lecture theatre and function spaces, providing contemporary exhibition and learning spaces for our students.

— Learning with VR

The use of virtual and augmented reality software enables building and construction students to enter and experience a completely immersive environment. With the aid of VR, students can virtually access construction sites safely, in class or at their own pace. The use of VR helps undergraduate construction students to gain a better understanding of the spatial qualities of a building or learn about structural components and assemblies in static models.

Kae HumBachelor of Business (Business Informations Systems)

I chose RMIT specifically because it was based in the city, and given that I was studying a business course, I really wanted to be in the centre of the business universe.

A lot of the lecturers gave really practical advice on how to start projects and how to get funding. I also found it to be a really people-first organisation, so all the lecturers knew us by name and gave us a lot of help after hours, and that’s something that really stood out to me

Pallavi DanielBachelor of Arts (Creative Writing)

The Bachelor of Arts (Creative Writing) was unlike anything offered at other universities. At RMIT, creative writing was the focus of the degree – not a singular unit or area of study.

I felt reassured that I wouldn’t just be spending three years studying something I loved – I’d also get a career out of it at the end.

Molly YangBachelor of Design (Communication Design)

During my design studies, I undertook placements at a design studio and at RMIT. Through these placements, I was able to design for professional clients and respond to feedback. [They] prepared me for both potential future employment within the corporate world and for designing in a boutique studio.

I love what I do because I get to mix creativity with functionality.

Education

RMIT is ranked in the top 100 universities in the world for education studies3, utilising both new and established teaching methods and classroom technologies. When you study education at RMIT, you’re joining a university with an established reputation for providing educational and vocational leadership in the field of knowledge creation.

Aside from traditional educational settings, our education graduates have the skills, knowledge and experience to work in private enterprise, government agencies and community service organisations. As a teacher, no matter what discipline you choose, you’re in a position to shape minds and foster a lifelong love of learning.

— Work-integrated learning

Teacher education courses at RMIT are designed to provide a minimum 100 days of supervised professional experience, so our students graduate with confidence. We encourage students to experience education in a range of settings, and offer opportunities for placements in different cultures and countries. As part of the curriculum, students complete a placement in a disability setting, allowing them to develop strategies for managing challenging behaviours. Placements in third year may be taken overseas, and placements in fourth year are selected by students and may include rural or interstate settings.

— Advanced Manufacturing Precinct (AMP)

Housing some of the most advanced manufacturing technologies available, the AMP brings together design and engineering, from digital design to digital manufacturing. The precinct offers high-speed multi-axis machining centres, 3D printing of advanced products and components, selective laser melting and many other cutting-edge technologies.

From coffee

to concrete

An RMIT lecturer and his students have come up with a new way to reduce the amount of coffee grounds going to landfill – using them in concrete. Concrete contains up to 80 per cent sand, but this resource can’t keep up with demand. Extracting it from fragile ecosystems can have a huge environmental impact.

The group found they could replace 10 per cent of the sand in a concrete mix with coffee grounds and have produced sample “coffee bricks”, which were displayed at RMIT’s EnGenius event in 2019.

Engineering

— Flight training

RMIT conducts flight training at the newly opened Bendigo site as well as the historic Point Cook site, which is the oldest operating airfield in the world and the birthplace of the Royal Australian Air Force. Both campuses include state-of-the-art FM210 flight simulators, which serve as training tools for student pilots. The equipment enables students to practise in all phases of flight, in any weather conditions and at any time of day, before taking to the skies.

Meray AbbaCertificate IV in Information Technology and Networking

I love computers and the power of networks. Networks connect everything – gaming platforms, communications, everything. I’ve always been curious, wanting to know how things work and trying new things.

I chose RMIT because they have a great reputation in new technology and I can explore a little of everything before deciding where I want to put all my energies.
