“The University of Newcastle helped me combine full-time work, family and study” Adam – Master of Environmental and Business Management
Designed for Life
Haven’t studied at University before?
Our postgraduate study options give you the flexibility to design a program that suits your lifestyle.
Don’t worry – often a combination of work experience and other studies is enough to get you started in many of our postgraduate degrees.
Flexibility, Choice, recognition
Just give us a call on 1800 88 21 21 to discuss your eligibility.
Meet the requirements of a postgraduate degree without sacrificing work commitments or family time. Study at your own pace, online or face-to-face (or a combination of both). Once you’ve completed your study you’ll be able to work anywhere in the world, as our degrees are recognised internationally.
Study a little or a lot Going back to university is a big decision, particularly if you’re working and/or have a family. The University of Newcastle gives you the option of studying single courses as well as having flexible entry and exit options, including Graduate Certificates, Graduate Diplomas and Masters programs.
“I didn’t want to put my career on hold whilst raising a family, but the juggle just seemed too hard. Postgraduate study at the University of Newcastle gave me the flexibility to study when and where I could, without sacrificing the important things in my life.” Gabrielle – “Busy mum”
Study where and when you want A postgraduate degree doesn’t have to mean spending hours on-campus every week. GradSchool was established to address the growing need for flexible online study options. GradSchool offers access to more than 450 courses, 60 programs and a range of corporate study options with a “learner centered” approach to cater for the needs of busy professionals and working parents. With a unique blend of printed and electronic media and online interaction, you have complete control over where and when you study.
Designed to help you
We have a whole range of services designed to make it easier for you to fit study into your life. Our online facilities allow you to access study libraries, submit assignments, use discussion boards, view lecture and tutorial notes and more, whenever and from wherever there is internet access. For our Indigenous postgraduate students, the Wollotuka Institute offers access to a range of dedicated resources and technology.
“The challenge of learning has always been a big part of my life, but so is family and my career. Postgraduate study at the University of Newcastle made it possible for me to achieve my goals through quality education, flexible learning options and first class resources, without sacrificing the things that matter the most to me.” Jason – “Lifelong Learner”
