Premise: Swinburne Online is the online arm of Swinburne University of Technology which is an Australian university based in Melbourne, Victoria. Swinburne Online was founded in 2011 after a 50-50 joint venture between Swinburne University of Technology and SEEK Learning seeking to capitalise on increasing demand for off-campus education.
Hypothesis: Swinburne Online is a university extension intended to meet the demand of students who do not wish to pursue online education.
