Perceptions of UNE
(in Mandarin)
Welcome!
An important part of UNE's high quality academic experience is its commitment to teaching and learning. With one of the lowest staff-to-student ratios among Australian universities, UNE provides opportunities for students to interact more easily with fellow students and academic staff, promoting discussion and effective learning.
Technology and computer literacy are integrated into learning outcomes across the UNE campus. Online components foster communication, no matter where you are in the world, while introducing students to evolving methods of teaching and learning using contemporary technological resources.
The Faculty of The Professions has been teaching jointly with partners such as The Chinese University of Hong Kong, The University of Hong Kong, City University of Hong Kong and Hong Kong Shue Yan University for over a decade offering courses in a wide range of education and health fields. The University has successfully graduated hundreds of students who express a high level of satisfaction with their UNE courses. Please link to a vote of thanks delivered by one of our recent graduates at the UNE Graduation Ceremony held in Hong Kong in November 2008.
The postgraduate experience at UNE (in Vietnamese)
The Faculty of The Professions supports a large number of higher degrees students that include external students from the United States, Bhutan, the South Pacific, Hong Kong, China, Vietnam, Thailand and Europe. We offer a wide range of courses, including Medicine, Law, Business, Education, Nursing, Health and Economics. The Faculty has established a long and well recognised tradition through its internal and externally offered courses and its alumni graduates. We also collaborate on teaching and research with international partners. An example is the Centre of Expertise on Hospital and Health Services Management at Naresuan University in Thailand.
