Joshua Derko JURIS DOCTOR. “My advice for future Bond students is to take advantage of everything Bond has to offer. There are great programs, great guest lectures, great clubs – we spent two years indoors, so get out there and enjoy Bond’s beautiful campus.”

Lisa Bonin ASSISTANT PROFESSOR AND DIRECTOR, CANADIAN LAW PROGRAM. “As a former litigator with a leading national law firm in Canada, I really appreciate Bond’s integrated practical skills curriculum. For our Canadian students, the focus on skills continues through into our Canadian courses and really prepares these students for their return to Canada. “We support our Canadian students in their transition back to Canada, providing information sessions and resources dedicated to the admissions process after graduation, as well as relevant work experience and clinical opportunities. Although we are halfway around the world, our students can still feel connected to the Canadian legal system and profession.”

Dr Wayne Hing HEAD OF PROGRAM, PHYSIOTHERAPY. “Students interested in studying physiotherapy at Bond can expect to receive a well-rounded and eclectic educational experience, and to graduate with a range of skills that include business management, research, and clinical practice. “Physiotherapy at Bond stands out because of its graduate entry pathways, accelerated timetable, and of course, the University’s beautiful location on the Gold Coast!”

Live in a city of innovation and opportunity The Gold Coast has quickly established itself as a hub for entrepreneurship and innovation, leading the way and growing constantly. More people on the Gold Coast own and run their own businesses than any other city in Australia, with the region attracting some of the world’s best and brightest minds.

A diverse industry landscape

Entrepreneurship opportunities

The Gold Coast offers a multifaceted and broad business landscape with strong employment opportunities across many sectors. Bond’s dedicated Career Development Centre provides access to industry connections that will help you make the most of our growing professional opportunities.

There are numerous opportunities for you to develop your entrepreneurship skills and nurture your ideas, both right here at Bond, and on the Gold Coast. Participate in the University’s Transformer program, major in Entrepreneurship and Innovation, and participate in networking opportunities, competitions and initiatives to broaden your entrepreneurial skill set.

A global community Bond students hail from more than 90 countries around the world. The city is welcoming and diverse, with almost one in three residents having been born overseas. At Bond, you will join students from all corners of the globe and gain an international perspective on study and work.

Be eligible for a post-study work visa While it is Australia’s sixth largest city, the Gold Coast is classified as a regional city for migration purposes. This means that you may be eligible for an extended, three-year post-study work visa after graduation if you complete a bachelor’s degree, or a four-year post-study work visa if you complete a master’s by coursework.

Be a standout graduate What you do at university has never been more important in preparing you to succeed in your career. In an increasingly competitive job market, it’s no longer about what you learn in the classroom – enhancing your employability is an essential part of the university experience.

Unmatched access to opportunities

Personalised career guidance

At Bond, personal attention is at the core of our student experience. This means you will have unrivalled access to the array of services, initiatives, and experiences on offer. Unlike larger universities, where these opportunities are only available to a select few, every student at Bond can take advantage of an array of experiences that will set them up for success after graduation.

As a Bond student, you will have lifelong access to a variety of career development services through our Career Development Centre. Our team of dedicated career professionals can help you with a full suite of services, from preparing your resumé and helping you hone your interview skills, to providing you with networking opportunities and putting you in contact with industry professionals.

Our business students learn from entrepreneurs and start-ups in Silicon Valley, while law students argue mooting cases in Hong Kong, Beijing, Canada, or even Queensland’s own Supreme Court. Sports science students can work with elite athletes and professional teams from all over the world, and our interns travel to incredible cities like Washington, D.C., Paris, London, and New York.

Industry placements The Career Development Centre can also assist with brokering work placements within your chosen industry. Through an industry placement, you will gain valuable experience with leading Australian and international employers, and contacts you will take into your professional life. We’ll help you source placement opportunities, guiding you through the application process and supporting you during this experience and beyond.

Life at Bond As Australia’s leading university for student experience, life at Bond is diverse and vibrant. The experiences you have and the friends you make will stay with you for a lifetime. Beyond the classroom, there are many ways to get involved in the Bond community.

Get to know your classmates at Orientation Your first days at Bond will be spent at Orientation, which consists of an exciting program of academic and social activities where you will meet other students and get to know Bond’s campus.

Join a range of clubs and societies Bond offers a wide collection of clubs and societies that are organised and run by students, for students. Many of our Canadian students choose to join clubs such as the Canadian Law Students' Association and the Bond Ball Hockey Club, just to name a few.

Attend on-campus events There’s always something happening on campus! Whatever your interests, you can participate in a programme of events held regularly on campus and facilitated by our student clubs and societies, including the Bond University Student Association (BUSA).

Be part of our strong sporting tradition At Bond, sport is in our DNA. We have a strong sporting tradition on campus, with students competing at the highest elite levels – as well as in more casual sporting competitions. Bond is also proud to have partnerships with international sporting organisations like the World Surf League and the Chiefs Esports Club. Even if you aren’t a competing athlete, you will have free access to our state-of-the-art Sports Centre and sporting facilities as a current Bond student.

Discover diverse dining and entertainment There are a collection of cafés and restaurants on campus that cater to a range of dietary requirements, including the provision of Halal meat and vegetarian options. Our main on-campus restaurant, Lakeside, features rotating menus inspired by international cuisines.

Get personalised support Studying in a new country is a big transition, and we’re here to help you every step of the way. As an international student, you will have the full support of the University behind you. Whether you need assistance enrolling in your subjects, help with your study skills or assignments through the Academic Skills Centre, or a hand with personal or advocacy support, we have a range of services entirely dedicated to assisting you.

An inclusive community Australia, the Gold Coast and Bond University all provide multicultural, inclusive and welcoming environments. As a Bond student, you will join an open student community where you will be encouraged to meet and network with both likeminded and diverse students. You will also be supported through a number of cultural and religious clubs and societies, and have access to a multifaith prayer room on campus.

Living on the Gold Coast The Gold Coast is one of the best places in the world to live and study – and Bond is located right at its centre. It’s a diverse and vibrant community filled with opportunity, and endless cultural, sport and leisure activities to enjoy. With public transport linking you to the very best the Gold Coast has to offer, you can finish class and be on the beach within minutes.

Discover an unmatched lifestyle

Getting around the Gold Coast

The Gold Coast is recognised as Australia’s favourite classroom for a reason. Not only will you get to experience the nation’s culture, education, and lifestyle, but the cost of living on the Gold Coast is more affordable than other, larger cities in Australia. Please note the Australian Government’s Department of Home Affairs requires international students to have access to a minimum of AUD $21,041 per year to fund their living expenses.

Pathways to Bond University If you don’t meet the minimum entry requirements for your chosen degree, Bond offers a range of pathways through Bond University College to help you achieve the necessary academic results. Our pathway programs are delivered on campus by Bond University College, and consist of academic and English preparation programs designed to get you ready for your chosen degree. Integrated with the rest of the University, Bond University College programs offer students additional support in small class environments. Bond University College students have full access to the same on-campus resources and facilities as other students and are welcomed as valuable members of our community from day one. Successful completion of a Bond University College program will permit entry into a related Bond University undergraduate degree with varying credit awarded*. For most study areas, the time to completion from a diploma to a bachelor’s program is the same, due to the foundational knowledge you will have built. For more information on admissions pathways, please refer to bond.edu.au/pathways. *Not applicable to all bachelor level programs.

Admission pathways Higher education diplomas

Combined undergraduate and postgraduate programs

Duration: 8 months (2 semesters) Starting: January, May, September Our diploma-level studies provide a pathway for students who do not meet the academic or English language requirements for direct entry into their chosen bachelor’s degree, or who would prefer to start their university journey in a more supportive environment. Successful completion of your diploma qualifies you for entry into a Bond bachelor’s degree with varying credit.

Providing a seamless pathway from your undergraduate studies into a career-ready master’s degree in occupational therapy, physiotherapy, or nutrition and dietetic practice, Bond University offers undergraduate programs that upon completion, transition directly into postgraduate studies once all offer conditions are met. Examples of this include: •

Double degree programs If one qualification isn’t enough, a double degree provides an excellent way to build on your studies and develop either broad or specialist knowledge. You’ll be able to complete two complementary degrees in the time it takes to finish just one at other universities. A double degree is simply two degrees that are pre-approved to be undertaken concurrently, such as the Bachelor of Arts / Bachelor of Laws. At the undergraduate level, the majority of our combined programs pair law or business with another discipline, and are completed in anywhere between 2 years, 8 months and 3 years, 8 months. We also offer double degrees at the postgraduate level, with combined qualifications with the MBA or Master of Project Management and an array of complementary postgraduate programs. Explore double degrees at bond.edu.au/program.

Jackson Silvester-Lee BACHELOR OF EXERCISE AND SPORTS SCIENCE. “Bond University gave me the chance to bring my own ambitions to life. The staff have been there every step of the way for me to achieve my dreams of playing rugby and becoming an innovative strength and conditioning coach. “I am where I want to be because of my studies at Bond, and I will continue to strive for more because they have shown me that limits are only an illusion that are to be pushed aside to unlock one’s true potential. No matter how big your goals are, the staff at Bond will be there to guide you.”

Shivam Rishi BACHELOR OF LAWS. “When I was researching where to study, I quickly learned that at Bond, I wouldn’t be just another number – Bond offers small class sizes where you have access to valuable face time with your professors, all of whom you know by name and can approach for further guidance. “Coming from Canada, another reason I chose Bond is because of its specialised Canadian law courses. It was important to me to attend a university that would help me get certified if I decided to practice in Canada. Bond has a long history of offering Canadian law courses that assist with accreditation exams back in Canada, and ultimately, these have distinctly prepared me for my future career as an international commercial lawyer.”

Help from home Many countries offer their citizens scholarships, grants or another form of student loan for overseas study. For the most up-to-date advice, go to your country’s government website. Postgraduate and research funding may also be available through your home university, your employer or professional organisations in your country or region.

Canada Student Loans Program In Canada, the federal and provincial governments jointly administer student financial assistance through the Canada Student Loans Program, which includes federal student loans (called Canada student loans) and provincial student loans. Bond University is a recognised institution in the Canada Student Loans Program. The Canada Student Loans Program provides interest-free loans for Canadian citizens or permanent residents enrolled in at least 60 per cent of a full-time study load.

Bank loans or lines of credit Major Canadian banks offer limited lines of credit to help students pay their tuition fees. This option normally only covers a portion of the cost associated with attending university abroad. Some of Canada’s major banks have specific loans designed for students, which can be negotiated on a case-by-case basis. Banks with these kinds of schemes include the Bank of Montreal, CIBC, RBC Royal Bank, Scotiabank, and TD Canada Trust.
