Flexible Study Options

UNE is flexible in the way it delivers courses and ways in which you can study your degree. Whether you want to speed your degree up by studying at Summer School, slow it down by taking some time off, or mix and match on campus and distance education study, you can study how and when you want to study.

Excellence in Distance Education

UNE is the longest continuous provider of distance education, with two-thirds of our students studying ‘off campus’. That means that we are good at it: we don’t forget about you or treat you like a second class student just because we can’t see you. We have a vast array of support services and programs designed specifically to cater for our distance education students and the different challenges they face. You cannot choose a better university to study by distance.

Respected Qualifications

UNE has a long and distinguished history traceable back to the late 1800s when UNE was a campus of the University of Sydney. Recognised worldwide as an institution of quality teaching and research, our degrees are highly respected and our graduates sought after by employers.

Great Support

We believe our job is to support you and to empower you to learn and grow. Whatever difficulty or obstacle you may be facing, we will be here to help you overcome it. We have a range of established support programs and services, all of which are free, and all of which you can access at any time – regardless of whether you are studying on or off campus, full or part time.
