Deakin University for job-ready graduates in global workplace
KUCHING: Australia’s Deakin University is a top-rated university with world-class outcomes.
Industry-focused degree programmes and a strong international outlook mean that Deakin graduates are ready for the global workplace.
Deakin is ranked in the Top 2 per cent of universities worldwide and is among the top 50 young universities in the world, according to QS and Times Higher Education.
Deakin’s degree programmes are many and varied. Be it the Sciences at its innovative nanotechnology facilities or the Arts at one of the world’s largest motion capture labs, Deakin brings together the latest in technology to complement learning.
Its practical approach to learning puts emphasis on realworld experience and professional practice.
In many degree programmes, students get practical experience right away in the first year of study – our engineering students build, our education students teach, our nursing students experience clinic work.
As a result, Deakin graduates are thoroughly job-ready and equipped with the professional tools sought by employers in an increasingly competitive global workplace.
Deakin also places a premium on work experience and internships to improve student employability.
The university is closely connected to industry partners around the world, ensuring that its degrees develop the skills and knowledge that are relevant and in demand by employers.
Deakin has four modern campuses that are deeply connected to their surrounding communities. Each campus offers a unique and stimulating teaching, learning and research environment.
Students have access to state-ofthe-art learning resources, and an excellent student support network to assist them in every step of their learning journey and beyond.
The university’s Cloud Campus offers a wide range of degree programs and units online, allowing students to engage in a convenient and personalised learning experience using the latest digital tools.
Students can make the most of this great learning experience, unconstrained by time or space, with no compromises in learning quality.
From the student’s first contact with Deakin, until they graduate and go further beyond in their career, Deakin staff is there to provide support the entire way.
Deakin’s staff caters to the information with advice for students eager to study there; help them choose a course to fulfil their career aspirations; support them through the application and admission process; organise orientation on arrival to get acquainted to the campus. Accommodation services are also available.
What’s more is that students can seek out mentors for academic help, social assistance and emotional support.
Mentors are current Deakin students, many of them international students. So new arrivals can likely find a mentor from the same home country who speaks the same language, making it easier for students to find their feet in the new environment.
