MELBOURNE

Melbourne is the multicultural heart of Australia – an international city that is home to people from all around the world. It is a city built for exploring: Coffee shops, galleries, music and amazing food can be found down every lane and alley in the city centre. There is always something happening in Melbourne, from cultural festivals and world-class arts performances to international sporting events like the Australian Open tennis tournament.

You can enjoy live music and soak up the sun at Federation Square, or ride a bike along the Yarra River. You can also visit the Melbourne Zoo and discover some of Australia's amazing wildlife, or spend a day exploring the Queen Victoria Market tasting fresh local produce.

MELBOURNE BURWOOD CAMPUSThe Melbourne Burwood Campus is Deakin’s largest and has a lively and diverse on-campus culture.

Distinguished by its striking modern architecture, the campus has open and inviting spaces for studying and socialising. In addition to excellent student service facilities and an exhaustive library, the campus features a professional motion capture lab; moot court; exercise physiology labs; drama and television studios; food and nutrition lab; and IT gaming facilities.

The campus is a short trip to the centre of Melbourne. Its location gives students access to the best of city living as well as the sense of community and relaxed feel of a suburban setting.

Some of the most popular undergraduate courses offered at the Melbourne Burwood Campus are in the areas of commerce, business, environmental science, information technology, nursing, and media and communication.

Melbourne is a safe, smart and sociable city, and it continuously

earns the title as the most liveable city in the world (Economist

Intelligence Unit, 2011–2016).

GEELONG GEELONG WATERFRONT CAMPUSLocated on the shores of the beautiful Corio Bay, the Geelong Waterfront Campus is positioned in the centre of Geelong’s business district. The campus provides a unique look at Australian heritage: Historic buildings are combined with modern design and convenience to produce a unique and cutting-edge campus space.

So perhaps it is not surprising that the Geelong Waterfront Campus is home to Deakin’s architecture and creative arts studios. Alongside a full range of accessible student services, the campus features nursing and health teaching facilities, including a purpose-built occupational therapy laboratory and nursing simulation environments. The campus is also home to new facilities for business and law students.

Geelong Waterfront students love the central location, as well as the creative, modern areas to meet with friends or study. A free shuttle bus connects students with the Geelong Waurn Ponds Campus.

Geelong combines the best of city living with a more relaxed atmosphere.Located just an hour outside of Melbourne, Geelong is the second largest city in the Australian State of Victoria.

In this dynamic and safe coastal town you will find a spectacular waterfront lined with some of Geelong's best cafes and restaurants; head to the surf coast where students take a break from their studies to enjoy a swim or surf; or check out Skilled Stadium football oval where the Geelong Cats – an Australian league football team and partner of Deakin – play their exciting games.

Geelong is a community that gladly welcomes students. You will find Deakin students working in many of the local business and enjoying the wide range of activities and facilities that the town has to offer.

WANT MORE CAMPUS INFO?Campus maps and more information can be found at deakin.edu.au/int-campus-life. If you would like to book a tour at one of Deakin's campuses, you can email [email protected].

WARRNAMBOOL

The Cloud Campus is Deakin's fastest-growing campus and is ideal for students who choose to study wholly online. Your classroom in the cloud is where you will take classes, submit assessments and participate in discussions. Deakin's Cloud Campus allows you to study in your own time and in any location. Everything is available online whenever and from wherever you need it. Take classes while you’re on-the-go, login and ask questions, and contribute to discussion forums – cloud learning adapts to your lifestyle.

As a Cloud Campus student you:

• are taught by the same lecturers and tutors as campus students

• get remote access to all of Deakin’s student support services and activities such as an online orientation when you first start

• connect to specialist careers advisers and language and learning advisers who can help you with course direction and study skills.

Please note that some cloud units and courses do have compulsory on-campus components, which may include examinations and practicals.

WARRNAMBOOL CAMPUSDeakin’s Warrnambool Campus is set on the banks of the picturesque Hopkins River, close to surf beaches and popular tourist attractions.The Warrnambool Campus is a close-knit community, a place where students and lecturers really have the opportunity to get to know each other and work closely together.

That sense of community extends to the whole of Warrnambool, providing support to new students in a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. But for those looking for an occasional jolt of big city excitement, trains run four times daily to Melbourne.

Courses in nursing are amongst the most popular at Warrnambool for international students, and dedicated facilities provide nursing students with a practical, hands-on learning experience. And being located near a number of unique aquatic environments makes the Warrnambool Campus an ideal location for marine biology studies.

CLOUD CAMPUS

Warrnambool presents a different side of Australia. Set along one of the country's most scenic coastlines, Warrnambool is the place to be for exploring Australia’s famously unique plant and animal habitats.

Warrnambool is also a prosperous country town that offers comfortable living and a cultural scene hosted by a great regional gallery and arts centre. Cruise up the Hopkins River or sit down to some excellent Southeast Asian cuisine on Liebig Street. Warrnambool has plenty of options for an active student, and the small town feel creates a sense of community that would be harder to find in a big city.

For students (and parents) concerned about expenses, Warrnambool offers a lower cost of living than Melbourne and Geelong without sacrificing quality.

Courses and units on the Cloud Campus are taught

by the same teachers as on the other campuses. Classes are

recorded and posted online and you will work in real time with other students and staff using

innovative digital tools.

PATHWAYS TO DEAKIN deakin.edu.au/pathways

Deakin understands that not everyone starts an undergraduate degree right after secondary school. A number of alternative entry pathway options are available for a range of applicants, and we are here to help you find one that best suits your needs.

What are pathways?Pathways provide alternative entry options for getting into your dream degree at Deakin if you do not meet the requirements for entry. Taking a pathway is a great option for students who need extra study to meet Deakin University's academic entry requirements.

Deakin College Deakin University has a unique partnership with pathway provider Deakin College. Deakin College offers a number of pathway programs that provide students with admission into Deakin University degrees. Deakin College holds classes on three of Deakin University's campuses, and successful completion of a Deakin College diploma may allow you to enter a Deakin University bachelor's degree program in the second year – saving you time and money. See the opposite page for more information about Deakin College.

Pathways through TAFEDeakin University has partnerships with TAFE providers to offer direct degree pathways via Certificate IV, Diploma, Advanced Diploma and Associate Degree qualifications. TAFE pathways may provide students with Credit Transfer and Recognition into specific Deakin degrees if admission requirements are met.

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. This reduces the number of units you need to complete to obtain your Deakin degree, saving time and money.

Complete a guaranteed entry pathwayGuaranteed entry pathways provide more certainty about TAFE pathways and enable you to progress from selected TAFE courses to Deakin degrees. Deakin offers guaranteed entry pathways from a number of selected TAFE partners in a growing range of disciplines. If you are taking a guaranteed entry pathway, so 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 may also benefit from up to 18 months’ credit towards your Deakin degree.

Pathways through other institutionsIf you are currently studying at another university and wish to transfer to Deakin to finish your degree, you can apply for Credit Transfer and Recognition. All university and private education provider qualifications are considered for entry and credit transfer, even if the qualification is in an area unrelated to what you want to study.

Transfer between Deakin degrees and campuses One of the great things about Deakin is that we have four campuses within the State of Victoria. Many of our courses are offered at more than one campus and the same high-quality degree is delivered no matter which campus you study at. Transferring from one Deakin course to another is another way you can gain entry into your degree of choice. Pathways between Deakin courses include moving from a single degree to a combined course or from a general degree to a specialist one. Transfers may be possible following completion of your first year of study at Deakin (subject to availability and meeting academic criteria).

Worried that you won't qualify for study at Deakin University? Deakin College is the perfect pathway to gain entry into a Deakin University course.

To help address this, many of our health sciences and allied health courses have a rural and regional focus, giving you a broader perspective on your studies. You can undertake placements in rural and regional locations, to complement knowledge and skills gained from metropolitan settings.

WHAT IS ALLIED HEALTH?Allied health is a broad term used to describe health professionals who are not doctors, dentists and nurses. The allied health workforce in Australia includes health professionals and other technicians, assistants and support workers who work in fields such as social work, optometry and occupational therapy. An allied health professional usually has a direct patient-care role, which may also apply to public health in general. Allied Health Professions Australia (AHPA) is the national voice of allied health in Australia.

Develop an understanding of how these responses differ between children, adults and the elderly, and between elite athletes, the general population or those suffering or recovering from disease or injury. You also learn how to use exercise to improve sporting performance, general health and fitness, and assist rehabilitation from disease or injury.

See Bachelor of Exercise and Sport Science.

Exercise and sport science Learn how to apply exercise and sport science to improve the athlete, the team or the individual, through training, coaching and advice. The major focus of the course and your learning is to improve performance, health and participation of individuals, athletes and teams through training, coaching and advice. You will develop the expertise to become a professional leader in exercise and sport science, and have the opportunity to study the biology, technology, behaviour and best practices that underpin exercise and sport science.

At Deakin, we are proud to be able to provide our research students with access to world-class facilities, a network of academic supervisors who are world leaders in their fields, and a large range of research disciplines.

We aim to make a difference through world-class innovation and research. The University achieves this through an integrated approach to:

• grow research capability, depth and breadth

• make innovation and collaboration core to who we are

• strengthen the evidence base of our teaching and learning.

Our strong commitment to research can be seen in Deakin's excellent performance in the Australian Research Council’s ‘Excellence in Research for Australia’ (ERA) rankings. Deakin has about 1600 higher degree by research candidates – smart people making the most of our excellent facilities, partnerships, strategic research centres and excellent reputation.

Our research portfolio extends across many areas and is world-class, with strengths in areas as diverse as advanced materials, biotechnology, built environment, ageing and chronic illness, citizenship and globalisation, intelligent systems, natural resource management, physical activity and nutrition, education, and social and mental health. We are proud to be making a difference to local and global challenges through research in disciplines such as these.

Honours degreesIf you value passion, intellectual challenge, and independent thinking, an honours degree at Deakin may be the right choice for you. Honours degrees can open up a path to high-level research degrees and provide better career opportunities.

For many students, studying an honours degree is the first opportunity they get to undertake their own research. Honours is a specialised year of study that allows you to draw together the theory and practical skills gained in previous undergraduate studies and to develop an in-depth knowledge of your particular discipline through research and additional coursework.

At Deakin you can apply to undertake honours in one of two ways:

On-course honours awardChoose a course that has honours embedded within the course, e.g. Bachelor of Occupational Therapy. This type of honours award recognises outstanding achievement in a bachelor’s degree program of four or more years, which has an embedded honours component.

Research-based honours awardChoose a course that allows you to undertake an additional year of study, e.g. Bachelor of Arts. This type of honours award allows you to undertake specialised research and research training while being supervised by an academic with a proven research record.

These honours awards will provide you with significant experience and exciting opportunities to expand your skill base before moving onto employment or postgraduate study. An honours award also provides the standard (and shortest) pathway for entry into research degrees.

For more information on honours degrees, please visit deakin.edu.au/int-honours.

Research degreesYou can pursue postgraduate research studies in three different ways:

• Master’s by research, which is awarded for an original contribution to knowledge, achieved in up to two years of full-time candidature or part-time equivalent

• Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), which is awarded for a substantial original contribution to knowledge, achieved in two to four years of full-time candidature or part-time equivalent

• Doctor of Psychology (DPsych), which is a professional doctorate program that combines a research project, coursework and structured research tasks that specifically relate to professional practice.
