Composer, performer and creative
industries graduate
Award-winning composer and performer
Kate Miller-Heidke was recently named
QUT Outstanding Alumnus of the Year
for her contribution to Australian culture.
Her music traverses contemporary, pop,
folk and opera, and she has achieved
multi-platinum status and eight ARIA
nominations.
Kate is an inspiration to current and
aspiring artists, forging an independent
path and breaking crowd-funding records
with her latest album, O Vertigo!, which
debuted at number four on the Australian
album charts.
Well known for her humanitarian efforts,
Kate is an advocate for MTV EXIT (End
Exploitation and Trafficking), and donated
five per cent of all income generated
from her recent album to the World Wide
Fund for Nature to preserve the Great
Barrier Reef.
Acknowledgement of Traditional Owners
In keeping with the spirit of Reconciliation, we acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the lands where QUT now stands, and recognise that these
have always been places of teaching and learning. We pay respect to their Elders—past, present and emerging—and acknowledge the important
role Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people continue to play within the QUT community.
Patrick Gorenac
Marketing and management student
QUT was immediately attractive as it
was the first Australian business school
to gain triple international accreditation,
so I knew my education would be in
capable hands. As part of my Corporate
Partners in Excellence scholarship, I will
undertake two internships, giving me
experience and contacts in the workplace.
I am also part of the QUT international
business case competition team. We
travel to competitions, hear from industry
professionals and develop the skills to
think in a way that suits the fast-paced
nature of contemporary business.

Chenoa Masters
Secondary education student
I love how practical my degree is and
believe that we learn best through
experience. I’m studying to become a
PE teacher and my classes are suited
to this learning environment. To support
our knowledge of teaching a class we
undertake hands-on training by leading our
peers through classes and activities on the
sports field. One of the best things about
my course is the professional placements
in schools—I learn so much in that time.
Our tutors and lecturers are always letting
us know about opportunities to gain
experience. I have been lucky enough to
work in several schools and work my way
up in the coaching world.
Practical courses

programs for overseas exchange and engagement, you will be
prepared to work in Australia and internationally.
Myles Holley
Journalism and law student
I had an amazing seven-month exchange
at the University of Leeds in the UK.
While I was there I completed non-law
electives, studying units that were
completely new to me including public
relations and counterterrorism. There
was also plenty of time to explore Europe
and I visited 15 countries and 29 cities.
I made lifelong friends and I am now
confident that I can quickly adapt to
diverse situations and problem solve—
skills that will be valuable throughout my
course and in my future career.

Real-world
augmented reality
QUT roboticists have developed
the world’s first robot to seek
out and control the Great Barrier
Reef’s crown-of-thorns starfish
(COTS), which are responsible for
an estimated 40 per cent of the
reef’s coral decline. Dr Matthew
Dunbabin and Dr Feras Dayoub
have demonstrated COTSbot can
autonomously detect and fatally
inject COTS and are now working
with philanthropists to adapt the
robot for use by citizen scientists in
coastal communities.
Research student Rena Cruz is
developing a cartilage model for
a 3D printed ear to help children
born with an underdeveloped or
non-existent external ear. The
3D printed ear, matched to the
child’s unaffected ear, contains the
child’s cartilage cells which will
grow and replace the implant. The
ultimate goal is to integrate hearing
assistance technology into the 3D
printed ear.
Creative industries senior academic
Dr Deb Polson has created a realtime, room-sized augmented reality
experience, the Museum of Colliding
Dimensions. Visitors interact with
an alien world, both physically
and virtually, through a unique
application of technologies including
projection mapping, virtual reality,
industrial laser scanning, multitouch and dynamic light and sound.
It is the first project from Australia’s
only dedicated creative industries
research and development lab.

The time
of your life
You will study in a culturally diverse and inclusive environment,
with support, development opportunities and social activities to
help you discover your place in the world and make the most of
your time at QUT.
Da Yea Kim
Nursing student
I like that there is no one in charge of you
at university. The subjects you study and
the classes that you attend are all up to
you. However, with that freedom comes
responsibility to prioritise things and seek
help. I go to uni around two or three days
a week usually for the full day and spend
the rest of my time at work, socialising or
doing more study.
QUT is not just about learning but also
having a social life. I try to attend as many
dinners, balls and seminars as I can, and
clubs are a good way to meet people with
the same interests. I’m a member of the
gluttony club, where we share information
about great food and regularly go on food
adventures.
An inclusive
environment
Is university for me?
Your timetable
Universities are diverse places with people
from all sorts of backgrounds. There are
people just like you already succeeding at uni.
Your timetable will depend on the course
you select and whether you are studying full
time, part time or online. You may have the
flexibility to select from different days and
timeslots to attend on-campus activities and/
or complete online tasks at your own pace.
Day and evening classes are offered for
some courses so you may be able to attend
classes at times that suit you best. For an
average unit, you will spend about 10–12
hours per week engaged in on-campus,
online or practical activities, self-directed
learning including reading and learning tasks,
reflection and completing assessment tasks.
Full-time study is usually three or four units
each semester and part-time study is one or
two units each semester.
Spending time on campus and connecting
with other students makes the transition
to uni easier and boosts your academic
success. It’s all about finding your tribe and
feeling like you belong—and we have plenty
of ways to make it happen, from orientation
through to sport, clubs and events.
Your learning
Your learning at QUT is designed to include
a blend of on-campus classes as well as
online activities. You might attend lectures,
tutorials, workshops, practicals, lab sessions
or other types of classes. Online learning may
include interactive lectures and discussions,
simulations, workshops or other activities and
access to readings and resources. You may
also participate in work-integrated learning as
part of your course, working with an industry
or community partner on relevant projects
or activities, or have opportunities to study
overseas.
At university, you are expected to be
an independent learner—keeping up
with your reading, assessment pieces
and developments in your field, actively
participating in your learning activities and
seeking advice when you need it.

There’s a strong Aboriginal and
Torres Strait Islander community.

Your assessment
You will usually have a number of
assessment tasks for each unit, such as
written or oral assignments (individual or
group), mid-semester and end-of-semester
exams, or practical tasks. For an assignment,
you might need to complete a task such as a
set of drawings in architecture, and research
the background of the topic using academic
literature. Exams might be multiple choice,
short answer, long essay or a combination.

clubs and meet new people—Orientation
week also includes activities such as
barbeques, concerts and competitions.

Accommodation
QUT's accommodation service offers advice
on tenancy matters, information about
student accommodation and access to the
accommodation vacancies database. Start
thinking about your accommodation options
well before you start university. For a list of
suburbs close to QUT campuses and further

There are three broad categories of student
accommodation.
Student apartment complexes:
• a single apartment or the option to rent a
room in a larger apartment
• fully furnished but students prepare their
own meals
• a supported student community
• usually close to campus facilities and
services
• cost per week is approximately
$325–$500 for a single apartment or
$269–$365 for an individual room in a
multi-share apartment.
Catered student accommodation:
• either a homestay with a family in the
Brisbane metropolitan area or a student
accommodation complex offering on-site
catering
• cost between $240 and $460 per week.
Share-house accommodation:
• houses that have been converted so
students have their own fully furnished,
lockable bedrooms, while sharing common
areas such as bathrooms, kitchen and
living area
• managed by real estate agents or other
companies specialising in student
accommodation
• cost from $165 to $350 per week.

Riley de Jong
Civil engineering student
Moving to Brisbane was both exciting
and a little bit daunting. Doing as much
research as possible while still at high
school helped to make the transition easier.
I attended Open Day to find out about
courses, accommodation, scholarships
and transport, and also to see the campus
and facilities and talk to current students.
Experiencing it first hand was the best way
to find the course and university for me.
As a regional student, Orientation was a
fantastic opportunity to meet lots of new
people and get to know what uni was all
about before classes started.

Real-world courses
As one of Australia’s leading universities, we offer a broad range
of undergraduate degrees that can lead to a successful career.
Prepare for employment in a changing world with up-to-date
courses and flexible options to tailor your degree to your interests.
Kathryn Lukin
Creative industries (entertainment
industries) and law student
I chose QUT because of the range of
choice and flexibility. I’ve tailored my
creative industries degree to exactly what
I’m interested in, and also paired it with a
law degree. I would like to pursue a career
in event management or law—which is
entirely possible with my degree choice.
Flexible study options
START QUT
We know the world of employment is
changing. By the time you graduate, there will
be new careers and opportunities that do not
currently exist. You can prepare by developing
a range of skills and knowledge to make the
most of whatever the future holds.
Give yourself the best chance of finding a
course you will enjoy by test driving university
subjects while you are in Year 12.
There are a number of ways you can expand
your knowledge to fields other than your
main area of study. Many of our courses
offer individual elective units, a minor (four
units) or second major (six to eight units).
For example:
•
•
combine a language minor and overseas
exchange with engineering to take
advantage of overseas employment
opportunities
add a second major in technology
innovation and design to your marketing
degree to better understand the impact
of technology on marketing strategy,
or to work at the cutting-edge of IT
development.
To find out about flexible study options in
your preferred courses, see the online course
information at www.qut.edu.au/study
You can also choose from a wide variety of
double degrees, which give you the chance
to gain qualifications across two areas (see
page 20).
14
The START QUT program offers highachieving students the chance to experience
university and extend their studies.
You can study up to two QUT units by
attending on-campus classes and completing
the same assessment items as other
first-year students.
START QUT students do not pay tuition fees
and if you pass your units you may receive
credit for related degrees, allowing you to
reduce university fees. You can also receive
a maximum of two QTAC bonus ranks and up
to four credit points towards the Queensland
Certificate of Education.
You should apply in Year 11 and must meet
the minimum academic requirements and
be supported by your school and parents/
guardians.

Why choose
a double degree?
A double degree combines two bachelor
degrees into a single course of study that:

Bella Lund
Nutrition science and media and
communication student
As well as nutrition, I also had interests
in media and marketing but wasn't sure
that I wanted to do a straight marketing
or journalism degree. When I discovered
that QUT offered a double degree in these
areas I knew it would be the perfect
course for me. I believe they will really
complement each other in the workforce,
maybe in the fields of health promotion or
health journalism.
The study load is the same as my friends
in single degrees. Each semester I do two
subjects from each degree. The degrees
actually work quite well together—the
media degree is improving my writing skills
which is helpful for assignments in my
nutrition degree.

•
allows you to specialise in two fields or
pursue different interest areas
is completed in a shorter time than two
single degrees, saving you time and money
provides a competitive advantage in
the workplace with a broader range of
skills and knowledge than single degree
graduates
gives you greater variety in your study
helps you build networks in two
professional areas.
Most double degrees take four to five years
to complete.
You will graduate with similar knowledge,
skills and qualifications as graduates from
each of the single degrees. When you
graduate, you can work in either discipline
area, or a field that combines both areas,
giving you greater flexibility in your career.
How does it work?
Most double degrees take only a year longer to
complete than a single degree but this doesn’t
mean you will have a heavier workload.
Generally, you will have the same number of
units each semester as you would for a single
degree. This is achieved by studying only
the compulsory parts of each single degree
and using your electives (or optional units) to
complete your second study area.
You will usually undertake units from both
study areas at the same time; however
some double degrees are structured so
you’ll spend some semesters focusing
exclusively on one area.
As you will be studying over two discipline
areas you may need to adapt to different
expectations, processes and assessment
requirements for each area.
Many students choose double degrees that
have classes at both Gardens Point and
Kelvin Grove campuses. A free shuttle bus
running between these campuses leaves
every 10 minutes during semester.
How to apply
You apply for a double degree the same way
as you would apply for a single degree. Each
double degree has its own QTAC code.
Getting started
You will need to attend orientation activities
for each of your study areas. This is an
opportunity to meet staff and students from
your faculty and find out what is expected of
you. There’s even a seminar about life as a
double degree student to help equip you with
the skills to succeed.

Aysha Moulton
Entertainment industries and
accounting student
I chose to study at QUT because I want
to be a producer and create stories.
My degree includes work placements,
internships and real-world projects,
so I will have industry experience and
networks when I graduate. I didn’t have
the greatest OP but with QUT’s entry
pathways I gained entry to my course.
My advice is to do your research. There is
lots of information, help and scholarships
out there. If you really want it, you can
make it happen.
How do I
apply? 1.
Follow this simple guide
to help you through the
application process.
Find the course
that suits you
Visit www.qut.edu.au/study to find out as much as possible
about the courses you are interested in studying.
To find the QUT degrees that best match your interests and
abilities try Match My Skills, an online, interactive quiz that
has been designed by professional careers advisers. The
quiz will help you to create a shortlist of possible courses.

Check you meet the
entry requirements
How selection is made
Bridging studies
If you are studying Year 12 in Queensland,
your application will be considered on your
Year 12 Student Profile.
If you do not have the assumed
knowledge we strongly recommend
preparatory studies—before the course
begins or during the first semester of
study—through QUT or other recognised
providers. QUT offers courses in chemistry,
mathematics and physics. Some tertiary
preparation courses provide an entry
rank as well as the opportunity to study
assumed knowledge subjects. Visit
www.qut.edu.au/assumed-knowledge
If you have other Year 12 results (including
International Baccalaureate, interstate or
overseas results), or if you are applying
for entry based on other study or work
experience, then you will be considered for
course offers on the basis of your entry rank.
Applicants are selected for courses in order
of academic merit, with OPs and ranks
treated equally in the process.
OP and rank cut offs from the previous
admission period are listed on pages 15–21.
It is important to realise that the cut offs
published by institutions should be used
as a guide only. Cut offs can change from
year to year depending on the number of
applications, the standard of the applicants
(OP/rank) and the number of places available
in the course (quota).
Additional entry requirements
Education degrees and some degrees in
creative industries have additional entry
requirements which may include a portfolio,
audition, interview or suitability statement,
as well as academic achievement. To check
the process and the application dates visit
www.qut.edu.au/additional-entry
Assumed knowledge
For most courses, QUT has an assumed
knowledge scheme. This means that we
don’t use specific school subjects as entry
criteria for our courses; however we assume
you have the knowledge either through high
school subjects or bridging courses. You may
struggle with your studies if you don’t have
this knowledge.
Prerequisites
Bachelor of Education courses have
prerequisite subjects which you must have
studied in order to gain entry to the course.
For more information, including prerequisite
subject equivalents and how to meet
prerequisites if you haven’t already, visit
www.qut.edu.au/prerequisites
Arsham Kapoor
Economics and statistics student
I chose my degree so I could put my love
of data and numbers to meaningful use,
and I am able to design my study to suit
my strengths and interests.
I completed a year of another degree
before realising that it wasn’t what I
wanted to do, but I was able to use that
study to gain entry to my current course.
English language proficiency
If you are a domestic student you will
meet the English language proficiency
requirements so long as you have completed
secondary schooling in Australia, or
completed one year of full-time accredited
diploma-level studies in Australia with a grade
point average of 4 or above (on QUT's 7-point
scale). If your first language is not English
and you have not previously undertaken
either senior schooling or higher study in the
English language, you must demonstrate your
English language proficiency. Visit
www.qut.edu.au/assumed-knowledge Assumed knowledge does not apply to
international students.

Investigate the
entry programs
Educational disadvantage
If you have been disadvantaged in your
education, bonus OPs or ranks and a
scholarship may be awarded through the
Educational Access Scheme (EAS).
If eligible, you can receive up to three
bonus OPs or six ranks for all EAS
categories including financial hardship,
home environment and responsibilities,
English language difficulty, personal illness
and disability, and educational disruption.
A combined maximum of five OPs or 10

categories.
If you are successful when applying for the
financial hardship category, and you enrol
to study at QUT, you will also receive a
guaranteed $3500 QUT Equity Scholarship.
All students are encouraged to make an
application via QUT’s Equity Scholarship
Scheme even if they are unsuccessful in their
EAS application.
Apply for EAS on your QTAC application.
If you are eligible, any OP/rank bonuses
are applied automatically to your QUT

OP and International
Baccalaureate Guarantee
If you receive an OP 1–5, an entry rank of 93
or better, or an International Baccalaureate
Diploma score of 33 or better, you are
guaranteed a place in the majority of QUT’s
courses in the major offer round. This means
that when you find out your OP or entry rank
you can assess your eligibility for a QUT
course before receiving an offer.
You still need to lodge a QTAC application
by the closing date. To find out whether a
course is included in the OP Guarantee visit
www.qut.edu.au/study
Mature-age or post-school entry
Your OP doesn’t go out of date after you leave
school; it gets converted to a rank (out of
99). If your rank isn’t sufficient to gain entry
to your chosen course, or if you don’t have
an OP or rank, you can be allocated a rank
based on additional study (degree or partial
degree studies, TAFE or private provider),
or work experience. Visit www.qut.edu.au/
study/entry-pathways
If you have already completed a bachelor
degree, you may be eligible for graduate
entry to courses in education, podiatry,
paramedics, nursing, and law, or entry to
QUT’s postgraduate courses. To check
your eligibility check the course entry at

HECS-HELP
Most students choose not to pay their
contribution up front and defer payment of their
contribution with a government HECS-HELP
loan. Loans are repaid when students begin
their career and their income passes a certain
level ($54 869 in the 2016–17 income year).
Visit www.qut.edu.au/study/hecs-help
The student services and amenities
fee covers services such as health and
welfare, employment and career advice,
clubs and cultural events, work experience
opportunities, leadership and development
programs, study skills and orientation
information. The maximum fee for 2017 is
$294. Eligible students can defer the fee
through a loan scheme called SA-HELP.
Visit www.qut.edu.au/study/fees-andscholarships
Other costs and requirements
There are also general living expenses you
may need to consider while you are studying,
including accommodation, telephone, gas
and electricity bills, food, transport, clothing,
medical bills and entertainment.
Some courses have course-related
equipment or material costs. Depending
on your course, you may need to apply for a
blue card (for working with children). To find
out if your course has additional costs visit

you study, turn to page 12.
Muava Temita
Justice and law student
I came from a financially disadvantaged
background and didn’t think I would
be able to go to uni, but since the
government made changes allowing
some New Zealand citizens to use
HECS-HELP, uni became a possibility.
I was eligible for entry through the
Educational Access Scheme and received
an Equity Scholarship and a Smith Family
scholarship. I also have some casual jobs.
The scholarships have been an immense
help in buying textbooks, stationery and a
desk. I also received support with settling
in to university through a mentor program,
had access to the textbook loan scheme
and received a laptop.
Tax file number
If you wish to use HECS-HELP or SA-HELP
to defer your fee payment, you will need to
provide QUT with your tax file number (TFN).
If you don’t already have a TFN you should
apply to the Australian Tax Office before you
start university as it can take up to 28 days to
process. Visit www.ato.gov.au
New Zealand citizens
For New Zealand citizens (including Pasifika
peoples who came to Australia as NZ citizens)
your residency status will affect how you
pay for university and eligibility for financial
support (such as HECS-HELP, Centrelink and
scholarships). Research these issues as early
as possible so you are prepared for university.
New Zealand citizen special category visa
holders may be eligible for HECS-HELP. For

QUT's Vice-Chancellor's Scholarship
offers so many opportunities on top of
the amazing financial support. It has
connected me with other like-minded
people, as well as mentors and dedicated

you can undertake further study to receive a
new rank. This is called upgrading.
Your options include completing:
•
•
Making the most of your
preferences
Talk to your guidance officer, QUT or
QTAC staff about making the most of
your six QTAC preferences to increase your
chances of being offered your ideal course.
Firstly, list the courses you want to study from
most preferred to least preferred. As a guide,
your:
•
•
•
first and second preferences are your
desired courses that you most want
to study
third and fourth preferences are back-up
courses that you want to study but are less
competitive for entry
fifth and six preferences are pathway
courses that are easier to get into, will help
you upgrade into your preferred course,
and that you are willing to study if you miss
out on other choices.
Secondly, check the major offer round date.
If all of your preferences have the same major
offer round, there’s no need to do anything
else. If you have courses listed with different
major offer rounds, you then need to order
your preferences by major offer round date
(from earliest date to latest date). Visit

will be made; however if you don’t receive an
early offer there’s no need to worry. Offers
will still be made in the major offer round.
Check your status using the QTAC online
application service.
You need to respond to QTAC by the
deadline to accept your offer, or to be
considered in future offer rounds. If you
don’t respond to your offer, it will lapse

QUT visit www.qut.edu.au/study/after-qtac
Credit for prior study
If you have completed studies at a
tertiary level you may be granted credit
for prior learning. We call this advanced
standing. Students who have completed an
International Baccalaureate Diploma may also
receive credit for some units. Once you have
accepted your QTAC offer you can apply to
QUT for credit. Visit www.qut.edu.au/credit
Deferment
QUT allows all domestic applicants to
defer the start of their study for one year,
