Honours students generally require adequate academic preparation to undertake a research thesis. The University of New England is one of Australia's oldest universities and had its beginnings in Armidale over 50 years ago. It is now one of the largest Australian universities, with around 4,000 internal students and 13,000 external students, including 5,500 undertaking postgraduate study. The campus covers 260 ha of attractive park and woodland on the north-western edge of Armidale, about five km from the city centre. The University welcomes applications from International students.
Enrolment is usually available in a number of different modes of delivery.
The fee for the fourth mode can be negotiated with an overseas institution or organisation in a partnership arrangement. You will also have the cost of textbooks, postage and where applicable residential school fees for travel and accommodation. The Graduate Certificate in Gifted and Talented Education is offered on a Full Fee basis. Full Fee paying awards are exempt from HECS fees. This fee may be tax deductible if there is a direct connection between the unit and your income-earning activities.
