Central Queensland University - Degree Programs

Overview

Central Queensland University is one of Australia’s most dynamic universities with a rich cultural diversity. Our students earn quality degrees and benefit from increased job opportunities. Our courses and programs are modeled on teaching and learning excellence, flexibility, and personal service.

CQU has over 24,000 students from over 100 countries. Students succeed because of the five-star quality and relevancy of teaching, learning, research and community programs and services. CQU’s personalized learning support, collaborative partnerships and dedicated staff provide pathways for people anywhere, with different learning styles to achieve, thrive and succeed.

CQU's campuses are located in three Australian states – Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria in nine beautiful, yet diverse, cities. Whether you crave the 'big city' urban experience of our Australian International Campuses with a majority of international students (Brisbane, Gold Coast, Melbourne, Sydney) or prefer the more relaxed regional locations with traditional Australian populations (Mackay, Gladstone, Emerald, Bundaberg), or a combination of both (Rockhampton), at CQU we offer it all. Our Queensland campuses are located on Australia 's tropical east coast - 'where the outback meets the reef' - offering quality service and a multicultural lifestyle.
