With access to unparalleled academic and technological resources on Bond’s world-class Gold Coast campus, students thrive in smaller study groups where eminent professors and industry-experienced lecturers know them by name.

WORLD-CLASS ACADEMICS As Australia’s leading independent university, Bond has attracted a team of internationally-renowned teaching professionals whose high level qualifications are complemented by their real-world experience consulting to major corporations worldwide. Their regular lectures and tutorials are supported by guest lectures presented by high profile corporate, political and industry identities, as well as visiting professors from all over the world who bring an international perspective to the classroom.

MATCHING QUALIFICATIONS WITH EXPERIENCE Bond’s fast-tracked three-semesters-per-year schedule enables students to complement their academic qualifications by undertaking internships, work placements and overseas exchanges, without over-extending their time at university. INTERNSHIPS Structured internship programs and work placements can be arranged in almost every field of study through Bond’s extensive network of corporate partners.

Your studies at Bond can be credited towards your current degree (subject to approval from your home institution) and our January, May and September semester start dates align with the Northern Hemisphere school schedule, ensuring minimum disruption to your study timetable.

DEGREES BY DESIGN

UNDERGRADUATE STUDY Applicants who have not previously studied at university would normally enrol in a Bachelor’s degree. These undergraduate study programs typically comprise 24 subjects which can be completed in six semesters by undertaking a full-time load of four subjects per semester. Some undergraduate degrees are slightly longer, such as the Bachelor of Laws (32 subjects – 8 semesters) and the Bachelor of Medicine/Bachelor of Surgery (15 semesters). UNIVERSITY CORE SUBJECTS At Bond University, we recognise that people have many careers throughout their lives where they require the soft skills to problem-solve and apply their education to a variety of occupations. As a result in every undergraduate degree, students (except the Bachelor of Medicine/ Bachelor of Surgery) must complete the four University core subjects – Communication Your choice of • Communication Skills • Public Speaking Outcomes: To communicate effectively in writing, speaking and visual modes; to understand the nature of communication processes and the sources of difficulty in communication. Information Technology Your choice of • Information Technology 1 • Business Applications of Information Technology Outcomes: To work effectively with contemporary information technology; to evaluate critically the current and future role of computing technology in the storage, retrieval and processing of information.

Values Your choice of • Cultural and Ethical Values • Contemporary Issues in Law and Society Outcomes: To appreciate the foundation of moral, ethical and social theories and their relevance to issues of public concern and debate; to use theoretical ideas in formulating arguments about how particular issues should be resolved. Organisations Your choice of • Strategic Management • Entrepreneurship Outcomes: To appreciate the natural, dynamic and strategic positioning of organisations within their environments; to appreciate the nature of effective work in groups. FOUNDATION SUBJECTS Most degrees include a specified number of foundation subjects which all students must complete, regardless of their chosen major or specialisation. ELECTIVE SUBJECTS Some degrees also allow for students to choose elective subjects, either from the Faculty in question or from any other Faculty in the university. MAJORS/SPECIALISATIONS A major is a grouping of subjects (usually six) in a particular discipline that allows students to focus on a specialisation. Some degree programs also allow for a double major comprising twelve subjects in a given discipline.

DEGREE OPTIONS

HIGHER LEVEL DEGREES

Bond University schedules three full semesters per year, allowing students to complete their studies much earlier than at other universities. For instance, a standard 24-subject Bachelor’s degree that takes three years with the normal two-semesters-per-year timetable, can be completed in only two years at Bond.

Bond’s fast-tracked timetable enables students to complete most Bachelor’s degrees in two years and a Masters’ degree in one year, delivering higher level qualifications in the same time that students at most other universities will take to complete a Bachelor degree.

This accelerated study mode, combined with the flexibility of our cross-Faculty subject offerings, gives students the opportunity to tailor their degree studies to suit specific career goals or enhance their employability by adding extra qualifications.

DOUBLE DEGREES Students may be able to study two degrees sequentially, however, this is subject to the approval of the Faculties or Schools offering the degrees.* *Not available for all programs.

STUDY SCHEDULE Most students undertake four subjects per semester* (equivalent to 40 credit points). You may, however, enrol in fewer subjects and extend your degree over a longer period.** Bond’s teaching methodology involves a combination of lectures, tutorials, seminars, examinations, projects, presentations, assignments, computer labs and industry projects. *Australian students enrolled in at least three subjects may be eligible to claim Austudy benefits. **Not available for the Bachelor of Medicine Bachelor of Surgery.

HONOURS DEGREES An Honours degree is usually two or three semesters of coursework, seminars and supervised research taken after a Bachelor’s degree. It advances students’ knowledge and experience and helps prepare them for future research work and higher degree programs. A high level of achievement in an undergraduate course is a pre-requisite of entry into an Honours degree program. Honours degrees are available in the Faculties of Health Sciences and Medicine, Humanities and Social Sciences, and Law.

Investing in your future Bond University is a not-for-profit, private independent university which means that fees are directly re-invested to provide outstanding education and facilities for students. Tuition is charged at the beginning of each semester as you enrol. The amount of fees payable by international students are the same as those for domestic students. Students will need to meet the costs of living expenses, textbooks and other equipment, but at Bond University you will not need to budget for on-campus parking as it is made available free of charge to all students. The use of the sporting facilities is also covered by the Student Activities Fee, which is optional but encouraged.

FEE-HELP If you are an Australian citizen or a holder of a permanent humanitarian visa, you will be able to access the Australian Government’s student loan program called FEE-HELP. FEE-HELP is an interest free loan that helps eligible fee paying students pay their tuition fees. The accumulated debt is indexed according to the Consumer Price Index (CPI). Eligible students who wish to pay for part or all of their tuition fees through FEE-HELP must complete a ‘Request for FEE-HELP assistance’ form by the end of the second week of the semester, including the provision of a tax file number. A student can then elect to pay a portion of fees directly to the university, and the remaining debt will be registered as a loan through the Australian Taxation Office. The current maximum loan available through FEE-HELP is AUD$104,142 for Medicine and AUD$83,313 for all other programs. The loan is repaid to the Australian Taxation Office taking compulsory repayments through the taxation system when you earn over AUD$41,595 in a financial year. A 10% bonus is granted for any voluntary payments over AUD$500. A loan fee applies. Please visit www.goingtouni. gov.au to view the Government publications on FEE-HELP.
