mining gRoWtHWestern Australia is the nation’s largest exporter with the strongest economy and lowest unemployment rate of all Australian states and territories. Despite the recent challenges for the global economy, the value of the WA’s mining and petroleum industry reached A$70.9 billion in 2010.

this growth is set to continue with new partnerships between Australia and china—including ventures such as the Karara iron ore project—as well as the multibillion-dollar Gorgon natural Gas project and rio tinto’s decision to expand its iron ore infrastructure in the state’s pilbara region. the project will be the largest mining project ever carried out in Australia, providing even more opportunities in the years ahead.

builDing ouR FutuReMajor construction works are underway to revitalise perth and make the city a more vibrant and dynamic place to live than ever before.

the state theatre centre of Western Australia—the newest addition to the perth cultural centre— opened early in 2011. the theatre presents contemporary dance and performing arts from local and international artists in the heart of perth’s most cosmopolitan entertainment district.

Work is also underway on the new perth Arena: a state-of-the-art venue that will feature sporting and entertainment events such as WA’s own international tennis tournament, the Hopman cup.

tHe golDen stAteLet’s not forget all the things that perth is famous for: blue skies, pristine beaches, a thriving cafe culture, boutique wineries and delicious cuisine from around the globe. With world-class tourist destinations on your doorstep and more hours of sunshine than any other Australian capital city, perth offers plenty of places to explore on your weekends and study breaks.

perth is located in the same time zone as cities such as singapore, Beijing, Hong Kong and Kuala Lumpur, making it easy to stay in touch with your friends and family while you experience the Australian lifestyle. you’ll also have the support of an international community of over 200 nationalities to help you feel at home.

perth’s excellent standard of living, along with the city’s low crime and unemployment rates, saw it placed in the top ten most desirable cities in the world in the London-based economist intelligence unit’s 2010 global liveability survey. the survey ranked 140 cities in terms of their stability, health care, culture and environment, education and infrastructure.

organisations such as the east perth redevelopment Authority (eprA) are working to make perth an even better place to live with urban renewal and regeneration projects, creating sustainable growth and vibrant urban areas. their projects range from creating an urban orchard in the city to transforming a disused power station into a waterfront destination for work, living and leisure.

to get the best start, we recommend you bring at least A$700 and have access to another A$2,000 during your first week in Australia. you will need this to pay bond money (property security) and rent in advance. costs associated with electricity, gas and telephone services are usually paid later.

your living costs will depend on your taste, interests and financial position. you should plan a budget to suit your needs, but make sure it is flexible enough to allow for changes. if you want to buy a car, make sure you consider additional expenses such as petrol, insurance and licensing costs.

buDgetyou will need to purchase items such as textbooks and stationery so you should plan ahead to cover these costs. you should budget an extra A$350 per year for items such as photocopying and course-related incidental costs such as protective clothing. textbooks and reference books will cost an additional A$150 – 400 each semester. the cost of books can vary considerably depending on the course and units you choose. For cheaper, secondhand books, try the curtin secondhand Bookshop.

sCHool-Age DePenDAntsin Western Australia, dependants of international students may be enrolled in either government (public) or non-government (private) schools registered by the commonwealth register of institutions and courses for overseas students (cricos). A visa for the dependant(s) must be obtained through the Department of immigration and citizenship (DiAc) or a representative. Both public and private schools require the payment of full school fees. Government (public) school fees vary for dependants of undergraduate students, postgraduate students and some scholarship students. it is important to understand these costs BeFore your dependants arrive in Australia.

Note: Dependants of postgraduate international students (master or PhD only) can be enrolled in selected public schools in Western Australia at local student rates, provided that the school has been registered and has the capacity to accept them.

For more information and for contacts regarding visa processing, school fees, enrolments and a list of schools, visit www.international.curtin.edu.au/dependants and download the Dependant schooling information sheet. you can also contact the international sponsored students unit on +61 8 9266 3348 or issu@curtin.edu.au

Note: If dependants enrolled in a public school require English as a Second Language, learning difficulty or disability support, you may need to pay A$2,000 or more per dependant, per year. This will be an additional charge to the relevant school fees. These associated costs are paid by the student, not by Curtin or the Department of Education of Western Australia. It is recommended that dependants commence English language training before arriving in Perth.

WoRkyou can work part time to gain important industry experience, meet new people and get involved in life in Australia while you study. your student visa gives you permission to work in Australia once you have started your course. you are allowed to work a maximum of 20 hours per week during semester and unlimited hours during semester breaks; however, work should not distract you from your studies and you shouldn’t rely on your earnings to pay your tuition fees or other living expenses.

visAsto meet your course requirements, you must be enrolled as a full-time, internal student and maintain satisfactory course progress for each study period. not all units are available in every semester so you may have to apply for another visa to complete your course if you fail a unit. if the units you need to graduate are not offered, you may have to return home and re-apply for admission. this may incur additional costs for your visa application, tuition fees and living expenses.

HeAltHyou must purchase overseas student Health cover (osHc) from a registered health provider, approved by the Australia Government Department of Health and Aged care. All international students need to purchase osHc before their student visa will be granted. your osHc must cover the full length of your student visa.

“the Hayman theatre gives us the chance to put on and watch plays, exploring and expanding our knowledge of theatre”

Louise, AustrALiA

enRiCHing ouR CouRseschoosing a degree is a big decision, which is why we’ve made our undergraduate degrees even more flexible. you will have the freedom to follow your interests as you learn more about your field before choosing a major that suits your career goals.

our new Bachelor of science and Bachelor of Arts degrees give you the opportunity to study in your area of interest without the pressure of choosing your major before you start your studies. Just like our Bachelor of commerce degree, you’ll study some foundation units before choosing a single or double major from an extensive range of disciplines.

We have also developed an exciting range of cross-disciplinary double majors to help you blend your creative interests with a business discipline. some popular combinations include textiles and entrepreneurship, international relations and economics, journalism and public relations, and creative writing and advertising. Find out more on page 33.

builDing A RePutAtioncurtin’s new engineering pavilion and Health sciences Graduate research Hub are the most recent additions to our range of world-class facilities. the multimillion-dollar curtin resources and chemistry precinct, completed in 2009, is the largest research facility of its kind in the southern hemisphere, giving students direct access to industry and international research opportunities.

curtin stadium, also new in 2009, features an expansive gym, sports courts, ladies studio and group fitness rooms. Beach volleyball courts, tennis courts and the perth Hockey stadium—one of the leading hockey venues in Australia—are located just outside.

CReAting inteRnAtionAl oPPoRtunitiesWith seven campuses across the Asia-pacific region, curtin gives you all the benefits of a truly international university.

All of the courses offered at our campuses in sarawak, singapore and sydney are run using the same unit structure and study materials as our courses in perth, meaning that you can transfer between two campuses to complete your curtin degree. When you graduate, you’ll have a degree that is recognised in more places around the world and be able to complete further study at either campus to enhance your career prospects.

Note: Not all units are offered in every semester. You will need to check with the University to make sure that the units you need to study in order to graduate will be offered in the semester that you plan to transfer.

HeAltH sCienCes: FINdINg solUTIoNs FoR The Real woRld

innovative research comes from collaboration, which is why curtin has developed a new Health sciences Graduate research Hub for our research students. the Hub, opened in January 2011, provides 127 workstations along with video conferencing facilities, seminar rooms, wireless network facilities and common areas for students to discuss their ideas in a world-class environment.

the university is also investing over A$9 million in new teaching and learning facilities for occupational therapy and social work students. From early 2011, students will be able to practice patient care scenarios in areas such as pediatrics, physical rehabilitation, splinting, and ergonomic and injury rehabilitation in state-of-the-art laboratories. the development also includes a new lecture theatre, library, counselling rooms and tutorial spaces, all equipped with the latest technology.

the new facilities are the latest additions to the Faculty’s range of industry-standard facilities, which help students like Jessica Davies develop their own skills and research interests. Jessica, an occupational therapy student, is studying the effect of parkinson’s disease on driving for her honours project.

“i have a big driving simulator here at the uni and lots of resources, and i really get to communicate with the participants of the study and do that hands-on work.” Jessica says.

going globAlthe Faculty won three prestigious Australian Learning and teaching council Awards in 2010, recognising some of our outstanding contributions to student learning. one of the awards was for Go Global—a unique program that gives students the chance to provide health services in collaboration with our partner organisations in china, india, ukraine and south Africa.

the Faculty’s new partnership with the Kenyan Medical training college will provide new opportunities for students and improve the healthcare capacity in east Africa. the partnership allows graduates from the college’s Higher Diploma to complete the final year of curtin’s Bachelor of science (Health safety and environment) online, and graduate with a curtin degree.

HumAnities: BRINgINg CReaTIvITy To lIFe

Beyond arts and languages, the humanities include fields such as architecture, project management and international relations that need resourceful professionals who can find solutions to a range of problems. A degree from curtin’s Faculty of Humanities will help you develop a flexible skill set that will let you carve your own dynamic career.

Design youR DegReeAt curtin, we believe that you shouldn’t be tied down to a career path by the course you choose. A curtin humanities degree is as flexible as you are, giving you opportunities to customise a degree that suits your own unique interests and ambitions. Anissa van uffelen, a final year mass communication student, started out with a strong attraction to television and creative advertising but developed a passion for marketing towards the final year of her degree. she was able to pursue her new interest because of the multidisciplinary nature of her course. “you can choose your own path,” explains Anissa, “not have the course choose your path for you.”

in 2009 we opened our new, multimillion-dollar curtin resources and chemistry precinct: a unique collaboration between the university, government and industry that provides research facilities for the largest group of scientists and engineers in the southern Hemisphere. two years on, the precinct is attracting high-caliber projects, including an A$1.2 million agreement with the Australian nuclear science and technology organisation to conduct research into the storage of nuclear waste.

curtin phD student Weixi Zhan uses the precinct’s facilities to help with his work in improving the water quality in the 500-kilometer perth to Kalgoorlie pipeline.

“the object of my research is to look at how to improve the water quality and to protect the water from the viruses and bacteria that cause cancer,” he explains.

in 2011, two key research groups of the Western Australian school of Mines—the Gold technology Group and the environmental inorganic Geochemistry Group—will move into the precinct. Both groups have significant industry funding to solve global problems relating to complex mineralogical environments.

moving FoRWARDthe university’s engineering pavilion, opened in December 2010, is the newest addition to curtin’s cluster of state-of-the-art learning spaces. Featuring open-plan areas for practical design work, smaller rooms for meetings and a careers space for students to interact with industry, the pavilion is designed to promote cross-disciplinary learning. there is also an open plan area for career fairs and events, giving students the chance to interact with industry and develop relationships with prospective employers.

the pavilion hosted the 2010 curtin roboFest which included the second inexus Australia national robotics competition. the event was organised by staff and students from curtin’s Faculty of science and engineering, curtin Business school and the indian institute of technology, Bombay, with students competing for a chance to compete in the world finals in Mumbai.

unDeRgRADuAte DegReesbachelor degreescourses leading to a first qualification, such as a bachelor degree award, are referred to as undergraduate courses. Bachelor degrees are usually three or four years’ long.

Honours programAs a natural extension to a bachelor degree, curtin offers honours programs in most areas. A year of honours study consists of coursework at an advanced level and research or project work. in some courses, the honours program is part of the final year of the degree program.

Double degreescurtin offers a number of double degree courses. in such courses, students study combined programs from two compatible courses and complete the requirements for two degrees in less time than it would normally take to complete the two degrees sequentially.

they require significantly more work than a single degree, but the rewards are seen to be much greater than those from the completion of either one of the single degrees. Double degrees are at least four years in length.

Recognition of prior learningcurtin recognises students’ relevant prior studies or work experience, allowing some students to finish their degrees in a shorter period of time. recognition of prior Learning (or Advanced standing) allows students to take advantage of—and be rewarded for—their previous studies.

AdmissionFor admission to curtin, applicants must satisfy minimum academic entry as well as english competency requirements. entry is competitive and levels higher than the minimum may be required for admission to some courses. A list of the common academic entry requirements can be found in the table on the following page.

As all courses are taught in english, applicants will need to meet curtin’s english language requirement.

Any one of the tests in the following table will be accepted as satisfying curtin’s language requirement; however, some courses may require a higher score for english. please refer to the individual course listings on the following pages for more information.

FurtHer your cAreer

At curtin, you can choose from a range of postgraduate levels of study. the progression of study varies depending on the entry requirements set by each school. to find out the progression of postgraduate study for a particular program, contact curtin international. curtin offers the following postgraduate programs:

gRADuAte CeRtiFiCAteGraduate certificate courses are designed to develop skills in a specialised area that may or may not be directly related to that of your undergraduate degree. some graduate certificates are specifically designed for non-graduates and allow you to progress towards further postgraduate study. All of the programs are career oriented, and usually take one semester.

gRADuAte DiPlomAthe graduate diploma is a specialised, vocationally-oriented award. entry is normally based on completion of a bachelor degree or diploma, although this can be in an unrelated field if you have work experience in the field of study. Graduate diplomas introduce graduates from disciplines outside of their chosen higher degree to postgraduate studies. Less academically qualified applicants may still apply. Graduate diplomas are usually completed in two semesters.

PostgRADuAte DiPlomAemphasis in a postgraduate diploma is on developing greater knowledge and skills through advanced studies of methods, theories and strategies to which you have already been exposed at undergraduate level. you will maintain a vocational emphasis through strong links with industry. completion of either the postgraduate diploma or graduate diploma usually takes two semesters, and you may be offered recognition of prior Learning (rpL) should you proceed to a master degree.

gRADuAte entRy mAsteRGraduate entry master courses provide a fast-track learning experience for students who already hold a bachelor degree, and are available in physiotherapy, occupational therapy, psychology, accounting, speech pathology, pharmacy and nursing.

mAsteR DegReeA school may accept you into a master degree provided that you hold appropriate qualifications as decided by the head of school. Where appropriate, provision may be made for you to undertake a bridging course or other preliminary work as a requirement for entry to a master degree program. Mature-age students who do not have formal entry qualifications may still qualify for admission to the master program. you may be given the opportunity to commence a preliminary program to the master program, provided any relevant work experience or previous academic achievement is recognised by the head of the school, as equivalent to attaining graduate status.

if performance in this preliminary program meets the required standard, you may then qualify for admission to the master program.

A master degree is usually completed in three or four semesters, unless rpL is awarded as a result of other relevant studies. some master degrees also have a work experience component.

# English Entry for physiotherapy, nursing, psychology and pharmacy courses can only be met by IELTS or OET (Occupational English Test). TOEFL is not acceptable. Note 1: Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) guidelines exist for physiotherapy and psychology courses. These guidelines require students undertaking postgraduate clinical placements to obtain limited or provisional registration, which requires applicants to achieve an IELTS score of 7.0 across all bands or an overall pass in the OET with grades A or B in each of the four components. Therefore, the University will require any student undertaking these courses to submit an IELTS or OET prior to being eligible for admission into the mainstream course. At time of publication no other tests of English will meet AHPRA requirements. Further information is available from www.ahpra.gov.auNote 2: Applicants who complete a bachelor degree course in which English was the language of instruction will be considered on a case-by-case basis.Note 3: Students applying from certain countries (such as China and India) will be required to undertake an IELTS test in order to be issued with a student visa by the Australian Government.

the university’s research focusses on four areas: resources and energy, ict and emerging technologies, health and sustainable development.

ResouRCes AnD eneRgycurtin supports Australia’s key industries with high-quality research in areas such as mining, engineering and chemistry. perth is set to become an international hub for petroleum industry research, thanks to a partnership between international firm cGGveritas and the Western Australian energy research Alliance, of which curtin is a member.

the curtin institute of Minerals and energy has built an important relationship with the Australian nuclear science and technology organisation as part of a four-year research project into the storage of nuclear waste. the researchers are using facilities at the multimillion-dollar curtin resources and chemistry precinct. read more on page 41.

iCt AnD emeRging teCHnologiesthe university’s ict expertise is diverse, ranging from areas such as spatial sciences and digital business systems to nanotechnology. researchers from the curtin institute of radio Astronomy are involved in the international square Kilometer Array (sKA) project that is set to answer questions about the nature of physics and the origin of the universe. the sKA

will be 50 times more sensitive and able to survey the sky 10,000 times faster than any other telescope in the world. read more about the A$2.5 billion project on page 41.

HeAltHthe curtin Health innovation research institute is Western Australia’s most comprehensive health research provider. researchers from the institute are developing new health care models to deliver health services more equitably, and to manage the impact of an ageing population and chronic illness on social and economic sustainability.

curtin’s partnership with Alzheimer’s Australia WA, for example, is building the knowledge and skills of health professionals to better care for people with dementia. their goal is to improve quality of life and quality of care for both the person with dementia and their carers. read more about health research at curtin on page 37.

sustAinAble DeveloPmentensuring that the way we live is sustainable for those who follow is fundamental to our future. the Australian sustainable Development institute at curtin utilises the resources and strengths of 16 research centres to tackle issues ranging from biodiversity and climate change to resource depletion and population growth. the centre also has a number of research affiliates, including the centre for Advanced studies in Australia, Asia and the pacific. researchers from this centre are working to achieve environmental, economic and social sustainability in the Asia-pacific region. read more about curtin’s sustainability projects on page 39.
