Becci Tannenbaum LAW ALUMNA. MOOTER. ASPIRING LEADER IN MEDIA LAW.

The Core Curriculum helped me to... Think beyond what was expected in senior school and apply a more mature focus to my academic work. The Core subjects were also a perfect way to get to know students across the wider University, as I was able to learn alongside people from all faculties.

As part of Beyond Bond I had the opportunity to... Complete work experience at a law firm in Sydney. I thoroughly enjoyed this experience and found it a very valuable talking point when applying for graduate positions. Beyond Bond inspired me to take on this opportunity and provided me with the support to complete work experience interstate.

I believe Bond graduates stand out because... Of the close connections Bondies make with academics, fellow classmates and industry, not just on campus, but globally. This provides us with the confidence to strive for big opportunities. Bondies are very much encouraged to think uniquely and practically, rather than solely relying on theory. Bond’s small class sizes and the personal relationships you form create an environment where students can be closely linked to industry and undertake work experience very early in their degree.

As a recent Bond graduate I am... Now working as a law graduate at Herbert Smith Freehills. Having undertaken a clerkship at the firm in my penultimate year at Bond, I developed an affinity for the values of the organisation and made strong connections with my colleagues. Longer term, I have aspirations to become a leader within the media and communications law sector.

Your degree decoded Applicants who have not previously studied at university will normally enrol in an undergraduate bachelor’s degree or diploma.

Entry requirements

Foundation subjects and electives

Admission to a bachelor’s degree is based on Year 12 academic results (ATAR, IB or equivalent) or on the completion of a recognised pathway program.

Each degree will comprise a specified number of compulsory foundation subjects, and a certain number of electives.

In 2020, the Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank (ATAR) replaced the Overall Position (OP) as the primary tertiary admissions factor for Queensland Year 12 students.

In many cases, electives can be chosen from any faculty, which enables you to design your degree to suit your individual career ambitions or personal interests.

Bachelor’s degree

Diploma

A bachelor’s degree is an undergraduate award of 24 subjects which is commonly the entry qualification required for many professions or further study. Most subjects have a value of 10 credit points (cps). Some subjects may only be worth 5cps, where others may be worth 20cps if they involve a major industry project or thesis.

Diplomas are non-degree offerings offered in practical and occupational fields of study.

Ultimately, the value of successfully completed subjects will need to total 240cps for a standard bachelor’s degree. Exceptions include the Bachelor of Laws and the Medical Program^. Prerequisites Some Bond University programs require students to have completed specific subjects, known as prerequisites, to be eligible for entry. These may have been completed in high school or a pathway program such as a diploma. Please refer to individual program listings for more information.

Combined degrees Bond’s accelerated schedule inspires many students to undertake a combined degree. Bachelor of Laws combinations are particularly popular, with the Bachelor of Business / Bachelor of Laws taking just 3 years and 8 months (11 semesters). This is just another reason why Bond graduates stand out from the crowd - you could graduate with two degrees in the same time it takes others to complete one.

A diploma can also be completed as a pathway for students who do not meet the academic requirements for direct entry into their chosen bachelor’s degree.

Academic pathways If your ATAR does not meet the entry requirements for your chosen program, or you choose not to get an ATAR, there are alternative ways to open the door to university study, including preparation programs and higher education diplomas offered by Bond University College. These programs can help you satisfy the academic requirements you need to then progress into a related bachelor’s degree – you may even be eligible for credit. Please refer to page 58 for more information.

Consecutive degrees To be accredited to practise in some professions, you may need to complete both an undergraduate and postgraduate program. These careers include architecture, psychology, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and nutrition and dietetic practice. Bond’s accelerated programs enable you to complete both degrees and get accredited much sooner than at other universities.

Majors, minors and double majors A major is a cluster of six subjects selected from one area of specialisation, a minor is four subjects, and a double major is 12 subjects. Depending on your program, a major, minor or double major can provide an opportunity to pursue a complementary interest area.

^ The Medical Program is comprised of two sequential degrees - the Bachelor of Medical Studies and the Doctor of Medicine. Applications for the Medical Program must be lodged through QTAC.

Take the fast lane Bond’s accelerated, three-semester-per-year timetable means you’ll finish your degree sooner and be earning an income up to a year ahead of graduates from other universities. Our accelerated degree structure has opened the doors to exceptional career opportunities for many of our high-flying alumni - enabling them to enter the workforce sooner and fast-track their first promotion. In fact, many of our alumni have achieved director, CEO, private practice and partnership status within 10 years of graduating from Bond.

Technological change is happening at a faster rate than ever before, transforming business model norms. Experts who can gather information, crunch numbers, and use data-driven insights to improve business decision making are highly sought-after. The Bachelor of Business Data Analytics is focused on understanding how data analytics techniques can be used to inform business operations, and make and refine business decisions. It is a quantitative program, combining elements of statistics, computing, big data, and machine learning. In this program, we teach students to understand the importance of data to modern businesses. The challenges of data analytics centre on the need for multiple disciplines to produce employable graduates who understand data analysis, capture, curation, search, sharing, storage, transfer, visualisation, and privacy.

Students must select one minor from the following: • • • • • • •

The second of Bond’s two-part Medical Program - the Doctor of Medicine (MD) - must be completed for students to be eligible for registration as a medical practitioner in any state or territory in Australia or New Zealand. The MD is distinguished by its comprehensive focus on evidence-based medicine and integrated clinical practice.

Bachelor of Medical Studies (BMedSt) The Bachelor of Medical Studies (BMedSt) is the first of two sequential degrees at Bond University and is an undergraduate program, sitting at Level 7 of the Australian Qualifications Framework. Because of Bond’s small class sizes, students learn in a highly personalised environment with state-of-the-art equipment. Students benefit from a variety of teaching and learning systems, including small group learning, practical classes, clinical skills and laboratory training, self-directed learning, web-based and e-learning, interactive seminars and lectures. This contemporary approach to medical education ensures that learning relates directly to patient care and prepares graduates to assume a high level of responsibility. The Bachelor of Medical Studies comprises eight semesters delivered over two years and eight months, and is followed by the Doctor of Medicine, comprised of six semesters delivered over two years. The two sequential degrees take 14 semesters in total and are equivalent to seven standard academic years in duration. However, with Bond University’s three-semester-per-year timetable and intensive clinical

training periods, these two programs are completed in just four years and eight months making it the fastest pathway to becoming a doctor in Australia and New Zealand. Graduates are then eligible to apply for hospital internships.

Further Study at Bond Students who successfully complete the Bachelor of Medical Studies proceed directly into the Doctor of Medicine program.

Doctor of Medicine (MD) The Doctor of Medicine (MD) component is an extended master’s level program and is undertaken through clinical rotations in hospital and community healthcare settings, as well as face-to-face teaching at timetabled education sessions. During this time, students undertake a research or professional project or a capstone experience and prepare a portfolio of their work.

Professional Recognition The Bachelor of Medical Studies and Doctor of Medicine degrees are accredited by the Australian Medical Council (AMC) ensuring that they meet or exceed the agreed national guidelines for medical education. Upon successful completion of both of the degrees, graduates are eligible for registration as a medical practitioner in any state or territory in Australia or New Zealand.

Professional Outcomes Graduates of the sequential degrees (BMedSt and MD) will have the appropriate knowledge, attitudes and skills to function effectively as interns in Australian hospitals and will be ideally positioned to undergo further training in any of the Australasian specialty colleges.

Life on the Gold Coast Students from every state and territory in Australia (and almost every continent!) call the Gold Coast and Bond University home. Here are just some of the reasons why.

The Gold Coast is an entrepreneurship and innovation hub.

The weather doesn’t get any better than this.

More people on the Gold Coast own and run their own businesses than any other city in Australia, and it attracts some of the world’s best and brightest minds. Here, the entrepreneurial and creative spirit runs through the veins of both born and bred locals and adopted Gold Coasters.

On the Gold Coast, expect an average of 300 days of sunshine per year, with an average temperature of 29 degrees.

It’s a city of opportunity. The Gold Coast is one of the fastest growing cities in the nation, and the sixth largest. It has a diverse industry who offer strong employment opportunities, with Bond’s Career Development Centre to support you along the way.

It’s home to a global community. Bond students come from over 90 countries around the world, and the Gold Coast itself is a welcoming and diverse city with almost one in three residents born overseas. You will join students from all corners of the globe, preparing you with an international perspective on study and work.

Get up close and personal with some local furry friends at Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary. Take a surfing lesson at Currumbin.

Finish up a week of study by heading out to Surfers Paradise and Broadbeach.

You’ll never be bored. From world-class beaches to shopping, dining and endless entertainment, there is no shortage of things to do on the Gold Coast.

At Bond, you’re in the heart of it all. Bond is located in Robina - the geographical centre of the Gold Coast. Here, you’re within easy reach of everything the city has to offer. In addition to main campus, the Bond Institute of Health & Sport is just a short eight-minute drive away.

Explore Springbrook’s waterfalls and bush walks.

Enjoy diverse culture and food from around the world at Gold Coast Chinatown and Miami Marketta street food night market.

Jessica Borten STUDENT JOURNALIST. CAT LOVER. SKY NEWS INTERN.

I grew up... On the Gold Coast.

In my first year at Bond I have… Been involved in so many different opportunities already. I have been a student reporter at the Bond University Newsroom, a Project Consultant for the A21 Campaign, and the Head of Writing for the Bound student magazine. Through the Career Development Centre at Bond, I managed to score employment as a Guest Liaison at the Sky News Gold Coast office in Southport. My role includes setting up guests for remote interviews and attending press conferences.

In five years I will be… On my way to achieving an executive producer or editor-in-chief role.

My advice to new students is… Take part in as much as you can – you’ll get out what you put in – and make sure to utilise the Career Development Centre when possible. University is definitely the time to explore opportunities outside your comfort zone so keep an eye out for things you wouldn’t normally consider, and then do it.

From 1 January, 2020, a combined HELP loan limit replaced the FEE-HELP limit and includes FEE-HELP, VET Student Loans, VET FEE-HELP and HECS-HELP. Only HECS-HELP borrowing from 1 January, 2020 onwards counts towards a person’s HELP limit.

A Bondy abroad With the support of Bond, I received the Australian Government’s New Colombo Plan Scholarship and it was one of the most amazing, eye-opening and challenging experiences I’ve had in my life. Between studying international law in Hong Kong, to interning with an NGO in Nepal, it’s safe to say I’ve made memories that will last me a lifetime. After travelling to Hong Kong in 2018 to represent Bond at an international mooting competition, I became extremely passionate about international legal practice, particularly in east Asia. In late August 2019, I jumped on my flight with my one-way ticket to begin my study component at the University of Hong Kong.

Something that initially struck me about Hong Kong was how much of a hub for internationalism it truly was. I lived, studied and travelled with students from all walks of life – India, South Korea, Spain, Germany, North America, and of course, a fair few Australians. I learned from some absolutely amazing lecturers, one of whom was a barrister; the others had studied at Yale, Oxford, Columbia and Georgetown. And when I wasn’t in class I was travelling around Hong Kong in one of its neighbouring countries, catching up with fellow Bondies in Taiwan, Malaysia, China, Philippines and Thailand. I’ll never forget those experiences. Jacob Cookson, Bachelor of Biomedical Science / Bachelor of Laws alumnus Graduate, Norton Rose Fulbright

Admission pathways What are adjustment factors?

What is the maximum adjustment?

If you are a current Australian Year 12 applicant, or you successfully completed your Australian Year 12 studies no more than two years ago and have not commenced any university studies, you may be eligible for adjustments to help you get into your intended program at Bond University.

The maximum adjustment applied to each applicant is five (5) ranks from one or more adjustment factors. Each adjustment factor has a maximum adjustment rank.

How do adjustment factors work? You will only be considered for adjustments if you do not meet the minimum ATAR / IB or selection rank required for the program. The adjustments will be applied if you meet the criteria for the relevant adjustment factor/s.

Adjustment factors cannot be used for entry into the Bond Medical Program, the Bachelor of Laws program and undergraduate programs with additional requirements such as auditions, interviews, portfolios or questionnaires. For more info, please visit: bond.edu.au/adjustment-factors

If you meet the eligible criteria, Bond University will grant you adjustment points to increase your selection rank. Adjustment can increase your selection rank, and this may get you an offer for your intended program. You must still meet any prerequisites specified for entry into your intended program.

VET qualifications Can I use a VET qualification for entry? For 2023 admission, Bond University will continue to accept VET Certificate IV, Diploma or Advanced Diploma qualifications for entry with the following assigned ranks.
