Collaborative Awards
Collaborative Awards are specific courses jointly offered between Curtin and other Tertiary Institutions (primarily other Western Australian public universities), although in some instances, they may be offered between Curtin and a professional body, for example, CPA Australia.
In most cases, a student nominates one enrolling institution, which admits them and grants their award. Participating institutions provide additional units, on a cross-institutional basis towards that award, with the logos of all participating institutions normally appearing on the final award.

Curtin Advantage
Curtin Advantage is an exciting new learning concept. The unit is set up as a working model Company with all relevant departments and divisions that exist in a real multi-tiered company environment. The only difference is the employees are Curtin students and young people from the community who volunteer their time in return for experience in the field of their choice. These young people are coached and directed by dedicated Curtin University staff and mentored by volunteers from Industry and Government.

In partnership with the African Virtual University (AVU), Curtin will utilise the latest in information and communication technologies to offer business programs to students in a range of locations across Africa, where the demand for quality tertiary-level education is enormous.
Eligible students will work from an AVU learning centre in participating universities in Ethiopia, Rwanda, Tanzania and Kenya to undertake the courses in distance education mode.
Courses offered will include: a Bachelor of Business Administration through the Curtin Business School, which prepares individuals for management roles in public and private sector organisations; and a Diploma of Business offered by Curtin's Vocational Training and Education Centre in Kalgoorlie, which is designed to enable graduates to gain employment in the fields of accounting or office administration.
Educational support will also be offered by Curtin's Learning Support Network to build the capacity of partner African university staff to run the courses themselves in the future.
The participating African universities will contribute to the programs and teaching to ensure that the courses are relevant to local social, cultural and technological needs.
