The Deakin University Australia,

Deakin University, Australia, is a top-rated university with world-class graduates. Deakin has a long tradition of using cutting-edge technology while providing a highly personalised learning experience. Industry-focused degree programs and a strong international outlook mean that Deakin graduates are ready for the global workplace. The University is highly ranked internationally, including being at No. 45 on the Times Higher Education ‘100 Under 50 Rankings’. Deakin was named the 2014 International Educator of the Year by the Government of the Australian State of Victoria, and has been ranked first in Victoria for student satisfaction for the last five years (Australian Graduate Survey 2011–2015). Deakin offers hundreds of degree programs across four faculties, 17 schools and a range of research institutes and strategic centres. A variety of courses are offered in numerous disciplines ranging from Science to Arts and Business to Health. Deakin’s courses are designed to enable graduate employability. Our students get practical experience, work experience and internships wherever possible – and sometimes in the first year of study. Our engineering students build, our education students teach. As a result, Deakin graduates are equipped with the skills and capabilities sought by employers in an increasingly competitive global workplace. Deakin also uses the latest in technology to improve learning. Our commitment to technological innovation can be found in our physical facilities: Deakin boasts the world’s first university carbon fibre production plant and one of the world’s largest motion capture film studios. It can also be seen in our digital spaces: DeakinSync is a unique, personalised hub that allows every student to connect with peers, academics, and support services and networks. And in a world first, Deakin has harnessed the power of IBM Watson – an innovative cognitive computer – to help students find answers to their questions about life at Deakin, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Deakin University has five campuses that each provide a unique, vibrant and friendly study experience. Four campuses – one in Melbourne (the world’s most liveable city*), two in Geelong, and one in Warrnambool – are physical spaces with deep connections to their surrounding communities and are accessible by car and public transport. Deakin’s fifth campus is in the cloud, and provides a personalised, engaging platform for students to communicate, share and collaborate anytime anywhere and on any device. Each campus offers state-of-the-art learning spaces and facilities, as well as access to support services.
