Non-Award and Cross Institutional Study Open Online Courses We offer open online courses across a range of subject areas. Courses are free to study, however students have the option of purchasing a certificate to verify their participation. Open courses are a great way to sample a range of study and research areas from across the University – and provide you with an insight into studying if some time has passed since you last picked up a textbook. newcastle.edu.au/online-learning
Hundreds of undergraduate and postgraduate courses (subjects) across a range of disciplines and campus locations are offered at the University of Newcastle. Depending on whether you are studying at another university and want to include one of our courses in your degree, or just want to take a single subject to increase your knowledge and skills in a particular area, you can apply to study a single course. Nonaward courses are not eligible for FEE-HELP, meaning you must pay all tuition fees by the census date. newcastle.edu.au/non-award-admission
