Opening the doors to university qualifications
For those students who want a university degree, we have more than 120 pathways touniversities in place.
More students are enrolled atSouthbank Institute as a pathway to
further study than at any other
vocational training provider inQueensland. For those students who
want a university degree, an
increasing number of our programsoffer a direct pathway to university.
While some of our diploma andadvanced diploma programs allow
students to enter universi ty degree
programs , others al low s tudents toenrol in a dual award program,
completing a Southbank Institute
qualification and then progress ing onto university to gain a bachelor
degree. This enables students to earn
two qualifications a practicaldiploma and a more theoretical
bachelor degree in the three years it
would normally take to earn thebachelor degree alone.
Pathways to universities offer a cost-savingoption for students who want a university
degree. For instance, a Vietnames e student
who wants an Australian university degreewill the following options:
1) Study in Australia
Via pathway Univers ity only
Diplom a: 1 year** Foundation: 1 year*
Bachelor: 2 years Bachelor: 3 years
Total: 3 years Total: 4 years
Instead of spending 4 years to s tudy a
bachelors degree, the student may want tostudy a diploma in 1 year and articulate to
university with credit. The total amount of
time for a bachelors degree, in this case, isonly 3 years.
________________________
* depending on whether the student meets entry criteria** depending on the programs
2) Study in Vietnam
Diplom a in Vietnam: 2 years**
Bachelor in Australia: 2 years
Total: 4 years
Southbank Institutes partnerships
with Vietnamese universities offerstudents an opportunity to s tudy
our program s in Vietnam. The
programs will be delivered in theexact s ame way it would be in
Australia. Students are aware with
widely recognised Southbankqualifications and can articulate to
study bachelors degrees with
different universities in Australia.
