Why Charles Sturt University?
As the fifth-largest university in Australia, Charles Sturt University (CSU) prides itself on providing practical, hands-on courses that ensure graduates are job-ready for a range of employment opportunities. Career focused, academic excellence
CSU is dedicated to excellence in the delivery of higher education and has a well-earned reputation for providing exceptional education delivered by dedicated professionals with practical and relevant industry experience.

Safe, friendly and a genuine Australian experience
At CSU, you will have the best of both worlds: undertake a high-quality degree while enjoying a great social life and experiencing Australian culture. Making lots of Australian friends, improving your English language skills, lower costs of living, unpolluted air and a safe environment are just some of the advantages of living and studying at one of our regional city locations. Our campus cities provide access to a wealth of activities, from joining sporting groups to enjoying local clubs or a night at the theatre. Whatever you desire from your time at university, you will be right at home at CSU. For a different CSU experience, CSU Study Centres are located in the heart of Sydney and Melbourne, allowing students to enjoy city living with access to transport, shops, restaurants and entertainment venues.

Guaranteed accommodation for international students
CSU's international students who commence in Session 1 (February) are guaranteed accommodation for the first year of study. CSU offers one of the widest and most affordable ranges of accommodation in Australia, with accommodation styles and packages to suit your lifestyle and budget, including catered and self-catered housing options for students on campus.

The CSU family
CSU has a network of study locations in regional New South Wales, the Australian Capital Territory (ACT), Sydney, Melbourne and even Ontario in Canada – making it one of the largest universities in Australia, however it is our sense of community that sets CSU apart. Wherever you choose to study, you will quickly become part of the CSU family.

Our graduates get jobs
CSU consistently ranks highly for graduate employment. A recent survey showed that 85.2% of all CSU domestic graduates find employment within four months of completing their bachelor degree. This is approximately six percentage points higher than the Australian national average. In fact, in the 2013 edition of Australia’s Good Universities Guide, CSU was ranked five out of a possible five stars in graduate employment outcomes – getting a job.

Personalised contact with dedicated academics
Smaller class sizes give students more personalised and regular contact with academics. CSU's teachers and lecturers are professionals with practical and relevant industry experience, and are supported by well-researched curricula and teaching methodologies. These result in high levels of satisfaction among graduates, employers and University partners.

Flexible learning
CSU uses technology to provide flexible study options, helping students fit study around work and lifestyle commitments. CSU’s online scholarly environment, CSU Interact, provides access to learning and research resources and allows you to collaborate and communicate online. Most CSU courses are offered in a variety of ways to suit you, including full-time on campus study or distance education. CSU works to find the balance that’s right for you.

Industry-related courses and work integrated learning
Our courses are developed in collaboration with industry representatives to ensure graduates are skilled to meet industry needs. Not only are CSU degrees accredited with relevant Australian government and industry bodies, these organisations are working closely with the University to guarantee CSU graduates are industry-ready, wherever in the world they may work. Most CSU courses offer access to workplace learning opportunities from the first year of study, letting students tackle real-life situations and build relationships with industry professionals from the start. Students also have access to careers advice through CSU's CareerHub. For more information see page 28.

Advanced learning and teaching facilities
As a CSU student, you will have access to a range of state-of-the-art facilities on campus, giving you experience working with the equipment, software and professional environments you will find in the workplace. Depending on your course, you may work in clinics or laboratories on campus, have access to the latest software in computer laboratories, or be able to showcase your work in gallery spaces and studios on campus. You will also have access to thousands of printed and electronic resources through CSU's libraries. For more information about CSU's learning and teaching facilities, see pages 22 and 23.

Leading provider of distance education
As an Australian pioneer in distance education, CSU has a great reputation for providing high quality distance education degrees with all the support you need to succeed. Most study materials are delivered online, so you can access them from almost anywhere in the world. You will have access to online tools to communicate with other students and staff from your course, and assignments can be submitted online. For more information, see page 30 or visit: www.csu.edu.au/distance-education

We want to ensure your time in Australia as a Study Abroad student is life-changing. For this reason, we are continually exploring new ways to help you maximise your study experience.

About Australia
CHINA HONG KONG CAMBODIA

Australia is a safe and welcoming country with one of the highest standards of living in the world.
Approximately 25% of the population of Australia was born overseas and 17% of Australians speak a language other than English at home, making it one of the most multicultural countries in the world. Australia is home to a diverse range of religions, and the Australian Constitution protects an individual’s right to freely practise their religion. Australians love their arts as much as they love their sport. As an international student studying at CSU, you can enjoy access to a variety of cultural activities whether you’re living on one of our regional campuses or studying at locations in Canberra, Melbourne or Sydney. Art galleries, sporting matches, food and wine festivals, historic museums, theatres, music, animation and film festivals are just some of the cultural activities you can experience. Australia may be a young country but its Indigenous inhabitants, the Australian Aborigines, have one of the longest-surviving cultures in the world. CSU’s regional campuses are located within the area occupied by NSW’s largest Aboriginal group, the Wiradjuri. CSU acknowledges the traditional custodians of the lands on which its campuses are located, paying respect to the Elders, both past and present, and extending that respect to all Indigenous Australians. Travel opportunities within Australia are endless. From the tropical rainforests in Queensland to the vast open deserts of the Northern Territory and the Snowy Mountains of southern NSW, the Australian landscape has much to offer. Due to its physical isolation from other countries, Australia is also home to many plants and animals that are not found anywhere else in the world, such as the well-known kangaroo, which can often be seen in the grounds of CSU’s regional campuses.

"Living on campus has been fun, meeting new people. It’s great when I come home feeling really tired and seeing happy faces just lifts my mood. It’s also really convenient when you have an essay due and you're only 10 minutes' walk from all the resources. “I feel like my course is preparing me for the workforce. The lecturers are committed, friendly and very approachable, which makes studies a lot easier. We often have guest lecturers who share with us their experience in the dietetics field, giving us a broader understanding of what dietitians do.

LIVING AT
On campus accommodation

CSU
DID YOU KNOW? A security service operates on all campuses to ensure the safety of students, staff and property. Security officers will also assist if you lock yourself out of your room late at night.

Living on campus means living in a specially designed and managed residence on or near the campus. Few universities in Australia can match the range of accommodation available at CSU's campuses. Most of the University’s accommodation has the advantage of being situated close to your classes and campus facilities. Living on campus at CSU offers all the facilities of a small village with the community spirit to match, helping you meet lots of new friends. For more information, visit: www.csu.edu.au/ oncampus/accommodation/on-campus Catered (full-board) Comfortable, single study-bedroom accommodation is available in the Halls of Residence. All full-board students can dine in a central dining room, or enjoy the flexibility of accessing meals at other outlets on campus. Student bedrooms are clean and comfortable, and all have telephone and internet access to allow you to communicate with the world from your room. Semi-catered The meal plan fee is included in the semi-catered accommodation package. The semi-catered plan includes five or 10 meals per week (depending on your package), 14 weeks per session. Students can choose different meal packages at multiple outlets across campuses. Self-catered If you need a little more flexibility, self-catered rooms are also available. These bedrooms are located in buildings that include a central common room and kitchen and other student-occupied bedrooms. Selfcatered accommodation is popular with CSU students because the kitchen facilities allow students to prepare meals of their choice, according to their budget. The Bathurst and Wagga Wagga campuses have their own mini-markets offering basic grocery items, or you can catch a bus into the campus city to go shopping. Students in self-catered accommodation are also welcome to buy meals in the central dining facilities, and there is a range of meal package options available.

Moving to a country where the culture is different and you don’t know anybody can seem a little overwhelming. One way of making this transition a little easier is to choose to live on campus. You will be immersed in student life and will soon make friends and feel at home.
At CSU, we have a range of affordable accommodation available across our campuses to suit your lifestyle and budget. You’ll develop lifelong friendships with Australian and international students from a variety of backgrounds enrolled in a diverse range of courses. The Halls of Residence at CSU are not just a place to call home, but a place where you can actively work with others to promote a strong, vibrant, inclusive and caring residential community. What will be in my room? You will have your own bedroom on campus, furnished with a bed, desk, chair, cupboards, drawers and shelves. Bed linen, doona and pillows are also provided, with a linen exchange on a weekly basis. You may bring your own linen and launder it yourself if you prefer. You will also have a private telephone and data point in your room. Rooms in self-catered accommodation have a bar-sized refrigerator. What do I need to bring? All self-catered areas have kitchens fitted with separate cupboard space for each resident, an oven or microwave, or a convection/microwave oven, a kettle and toaster. You will need to bring your own crockery, cutlery, cooking utensils, pots and pans, tea towels and washing up items. In catered residences, where meals are provided in the dining hall, there are small kitchens with a kettle, toaster, fridge and microwave. What other facilities are available? Common rooms are furnished with lounge chairs and a television, and some are connected to pay TV. All common rooms, kitchens and bathrooms are cleaned regularly. Washing machines, dryers and clotheslines are available in every residence. All machines are operated using your student ID card, and the cost is covered by the Washing Machine Levy.

“I chose to study Physiotherapy at CSU because it had a good reputation and Albury-Wodonga had all the attractions of a big city without the costs. “Living and studying in a smaller community has also allowed me to meet many different people. I have shared a house with an Australian and a Korean, so we exposed each other to new styles of cooking and each other’s cultures. “Everyone here is so friendly and it is very easy to get involved in social activities. I am a member of the Physio Club, which has provided a great opportunity to meet other physiotherapy students and take advantage of some of the extra-curricular activities available in the local area. “It’s not just the other students who are friendly though. The teachers are very friendly and accessible and, above all, they provide extra time for international students.”

CSU works closely with TAFE to help you get the qualifications you need with minimum additional study. From receiving credit for previous study to undertaking joint programs, we will work with you to ensure you reach your goals.
CSU provides academic credit for many TAFE qualifications, which means you could fast-track completion of a university degree. As a general guideline: • a TAFE Diploma delivered in Australia will generate credit worth up to one year of a three-year degree at CSU, which means you could graduate with a full Bachelor degree in just two years of full-time university study. • with an Advanced Diploma, you may receive credit worth up to two years of a three-year degree, allowing you to complete your degree in just over one year of full-time university study. Note: The amount of credit awarded will vary across courses and is therefore assessed on a case-by-case basis upon submission of an application for admission. Confirmation of approved credit will be made when the student receives an offer of admission to CSU. To find out more about TAFE pathways to CSU, visit: www.csu.edu.au/tafe

Distance education
A university degree completed by distance education provides you with the flexibility to continue your existing commitments – like work or family – while gaining the same qualifications as on campus students. You are not committed to attending lectures and tutorials, and can work your way through the course material at a pace and time that suits you, whether that is early in the morning, late at night or you have time to study during the day.

Study tools
Each subject you are studying will have its own site on CSU Interact, which will provide a range of learning resources, including online and digital media. You will also be able to access all the information about when assignments are due, when any residential schools will be held and what texts you will need. DVDs, CD-ROMs, texts and interactive teaching methods combine with CSU’s excellent online system, allowing you to access study materials and information, and communicate with your lecturers and other students at a time that suits you. CSU’s comprehensive use of technology enables you to access online forums, wikis, blogs, podcasts and library resources to search the catalogues and read or download articles, as well as online assignment submission. Lecturers may also use videoconferencing or on campus residential schools to ensure you receive the best learning and teaching experience while studying by distance education. They may also use the Online Meeting tool in CSU Interact for tutorials, teaching and other interactive support.

24,000
distance education students from across Australia and around the world.

CSU has a huge network of more than

Practical placements
If your course requires you to undertake practical placements, you may request these to be undertaken in your home country, and in some cases your current workplace, if suitable.

Time management
Distance education students usually study part-time, taking two subjects per session, with each subject needing between 140 and 160 hours of study in total (around 8-10 hours each week). You can often vary your study load to fit in with your schedule – from one subject per session to four or five.

DID YOU KNOW? Distance education can be the perfect solution to help you get the degree you have always wanted, even if you now have a family or work full-time. Visit: www.csu.edu.au/distance-education

Assessment
When you study by distance education, your assessment tasks are equivalent to those of on campus students. Results achieved in essays, examinations, online assessments or seminars serve as a guide to your progress and understanding of a topic. Assignments can be submitted electronically or by mail. You can attend examinations at locations in most metropolitan and regional centres throughout Australia, or in one of our examination centres in most major cities around the world. No student is required to travel more than 120km to attend an examination.

Studying by distance education can be a great way to fit study into your lifestyle and gain the degree you have always wanted, without the cost or inconvenience of moving away from home.

Residential schools
Some subjects offered by distance education have residential schools, which are held on the campus that administers your course. Residential schools are designed to provide students with the opportunity to meet with lecturers and fellow students in person, undertake practical work or laboratory sessions, attend lectures and discuss study topics in depth, clarifying any queries. They also allow students to familiarise themselves with the University and its resources. Residential schools are usually conducted in the break before each session, or mid-session. They vary from one to five days in duration and are generally scheduled between 9am and 5pm. While attendance at some residential schools is compulsory, they are often optional, so please ask your Course Director. You will be advised of any residential school requirements when you receive your study pack – or you can check through your subject information online once you enrol. Reminders for residential schools are sent to students enrolled in relevant subjects. Courses with residential schools can be found in the international distance education course list at: www.csu.edu.au/international/ fees-and-costs On campus accommodation in the student residences is often available during residential schools.

Self-directed learning
While CSU provides a range of resources and support services to help make distance education easy, it is your responsibility to make time for study. Distance education students develop the skills to motivate themselves, work unsupervised, and set deadlines for themselves as independent learners and workers. Upon graduation, students will be able to demonstrate their ability to focus on tasks and meet deadlines, boosting their employability.

Distance education students have access to CSU’s resources such as libraries, lecturers and online counselling, as well as on campus facilities.

Cost of study
Cost of living
Australia is a sophisticated, friendly and affordable country that enjoys one of the highest standards of living in the world. Regional campuses The overall cost of obtaining a degree at CSU is very competitive when compared to other universities in Australia, and our students find that the cost of living is less in a regional centre compared to metropolitan locations. As a guide, the Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC) advises the estimated cost for a single student studying in Australia (including accommodation, meals, textbooks, personal incidentals, transportation and entertainment) comes to a total of approximately AUD$1,550 per month (AUD$18,610 per year). If you intend to bring your spouse, you will need at least an additional AUD$6,515 per year, AUD$3,720 per year for your first child and AUD$2,790 per year for every other child, as well as fees for your children’s education. In addition to this amount there will be the cost of a return trip home and international phone calls. For more information, please refer to the DIAC website: www.immi.gov.au/students Students with families Students with families who wish to bring their dependants with them to Australia will need to be: • eligible for streamlined visa processing • assessment level 1 or 2 • assessment level 3 or 4 and completing a course longer than 12 months, or have been in Australia for 12 months or longer. Students' assessment level is determined by their course of study and nationality. For more information, visit: www.immi.gov.au/ students/students/bringing_family School-aged dependent children (between ages five and 18) in Australia for three months or more are required to be enrolled in school. You will be required to pay full fees to enrol your children in either a government or non-government school, however, NSW government school education fees are waived for the dependants of international postgraduate doctorate students, with the exception of King Abdullah scholarship holders. For an indication of school fees, visit:
www.detinternational.nsw.edu.au/schools Working in Australia

Tuition fees
You should refer to the fees list for the tuition fee of the course you wish to study. This can be found online through the online course brochures or: www.csu.edu.au/international/ fees-and-costs Please note that tuition fees are shown in Australian dollars as subject, session and annual amounts.

stuDent proFiLe
Name: Keely Snider Study Abroad student from Lakehead University, Canada
“I have always wanted to see Australia and have the opportunity to meet new people and experience a new culture first-hand. What I enjoyed most about CSU were the people – not only my friends but also my lecturers. Studying an Arts program ensured there was always something new and exciting going on, which made it fun to go to class. “Living on campus is the best way to go as everything is already there for you and you do not have to cook. You also meet so many people. I found it very easy to make friends and found everyone very welcoming and friendly. They were willing to invite me places. With the easy-going Australian lifestyle, everyone is accepted. “Studying abroad is an experience of a lifetime and you will love every minute of it. The experience you get from studying at CSU and travelling is one you will remember forever. You should not miss out on the opportunity.”

Courses information
Levels of study
Undergraduate Undergraduate study is a student’s entry level at university. While most undergraduate study is at Bachelor degree level, students may also enrol in or exit with a University Certificate or Associate Degree from some courses.
University Certificate / Diploma

Postgraduate Postgraduate study is normally undertaken after a Bachelor degree has been successfully completed. This may be immediately on conclusion of the undergraduate degree, or after a period in the workforce, and sometimes practical work experience is a requirement of entry. Through study at these levels, students have the opportunity to build their knowledge in a specific area through a program of study involving coursework and/or research, resulting in the completion of a dissertation or thesis for Master or Doctoral awards. Graduate degrees include Graduate Certificate and Graduate Diploma and usually require no previous study in that discipline area. Postgraduate degree levels include Postgraduate Diploma, Master or Doctorate (PhD). For postgraduate awards, students are required to have previous study or experience in the same discipline area as the award, so that the postgraduate course builds on that earlier study or knowledge. Higher degree by coursework: If you’re studying a Master degree, you can combine coursework or independent study (at least one-third of your program) with a dissertation. Higher degree by research: If you’re studying a Master degree or PhD, you can spend twothirds or more of your time on a thesis based on your own original and significant research.

APPLYING TO CSU

Steamlined Visa Processing arrangements
Future international students should obtain official advice on the student visa application process and requirements from the Australian Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC) website at: www.immi.gov.au/students/ CSU is approved by the Australian Government for the Streamlined Visa Processing arrangements (SVP) for prospective international students studying in Australia, introduced in early 2012. SVP is designed to provide faster, more streamlined student visa processing and generally reduce evidentiary requirements for prospective international students. Under SVP, DIAC will assess student visa applicants who lodge their applications with a Confirmation of Enrolment (CoE) from CSU at Bachelor, Master or Doctoral degree level as though they were a lower migration risk (Level 1), regardless of their country of origin. The intention is that the vast majority of prospective students can be confident that they will have their visa applications processed quickly and with reduced evidentiary requirements. The important requirement for students to be assessed at this lower level is that CSU must only issue CoEs to prospective international students who are assessed by CSU to be Genuine Temporary Entrants (GTEs). In order to ensure this, CSU’s application process now involves an interview assessment by CSU Admissions with direct applicants, and CSU may request certain additional documentation and information from applicants if required, which will be detailed in the letter of offer. Based on the interview and the information provided, CSU will assess whether the applicant is a GTE before issuing a CoE. Applicants cannot apply to DIAC for a student visa without a CoE having been issued. For applicants who use a CSU International Agent, the GTE assessment will be conducted by the International Agent. The International Agent will then submit a GTE Certification to CSU Admissions verifying that the assessment has been completed and that they have assessed the applicant as a GTE. For further information in relation to CSU’s SVP arrangements please see: www.csu.edu.au/international/studentvisa-information
