Collaborative Course and Unit Partnerships @ Curtin
Curtin has a variety of partnerships with other tertiary institutes and professional bodies. These relationships allow Curtin to offer students a variety of study programs. They include:
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.
Open Universities Australia
Open Universities Australia (Open Unis) provides students with choices in how they access learning opportunities at a range of Australian universities and colleges.
