Full timeFor an undergraduate bachelor degree, a standard full-time load consists of four units per term. You can expect a maximum of 16 hours on campus each week, consisting of 4 hours per unit.

Part time Part-time study is only available to international students who do not live in Australia and are studying online. A part-time study load consists of one or two units per term.

RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNINGIf you have previously studied at another university or institution within the last ten years, or have professional experience, you may be eligible for recognition of prior learning (also known as advanced standing, credit exemption and credit transfer).
