Info day welcomes everyone

Prospective students will have the chance to indulge themselves with the opportunities Federation University has to offer at next month’s open day.

To be held on Tuesday 12 December, from 1pm-5pm, the day will feature campus tours and presentation sessions, where visitors can gain valuable knowledge from academics, current students, admissions support and industry guests.

Professor Duncan Bailey, the university’s vice-chancellor and president said that the day allows future students to take a glance at future courses that they might be interested in.

“Info day is a wonderful opportunity to help prospective students choose the course or pathway that is right for them and gain valuable knowledge about the flexibility, support and scholarships available to them at Federation,” Professor Bailey said.

This is also a good opportunity for those who did not receive the Australian Tertiary Admissions Rank (ATAR) that they were hoping for to explore a wide range of options.

Non-school-leavers also have the chance to enquire about studying in 2024, and learn about flexible study options and pathways from TAFE to university.

“Our students can succeed wherever they start on their journey, through a suite of courses designed, developed and delivered in partnership with industry as part of our cooperative education model,” Professor Bailey said.

As part of Australia’s first cooperative education model, the university readies students for the workforce through direct connection to employers and co-op experiential learning.

Co-op degrees in science, engineering, business and information technology will be offered in 2024.

“We aim to make a real difference to the lives of every student who walks through our doors,” Professor Bailey said.

Federation University is rated by the Good Universities Guide as the number one university in Australia for first-generation student enrolment and number one in Victoria for undergraduate starting salary and social equity.

The info day will be held at the campuses of Berwick, Mt Helen, Gippsland and Camp Street.
