same career-focused degree as an on-campus student would.
Your degree will have the same small classes as on-campus students, and
you will be assessed in the same way.
Graduate capabilities that get jobs
You will receive the same 21st Century Graduate Capabilities that make an
ICMS qualification unique and graduate with an internationally recognised
qualification.
Community of learning
Our online learning is cutting edge and allows for virtual communities to
support you through your degree. From student chats and discussions to
Online Academic Support 24/7 you will never feel alone while studying with
us.
Study from home, intern in the real world
Your online study will include industry training - a key component of ICMS’
degrees, and a driver of our career-focused approach. Our industry training
consultants guide you through your Work Integrated Learning (WIL) subjects
to find you a professional placement outside of the virtual space that is
aligned with your career goals. That’s one of the reasons why around 90%*
of our graduates have a job in their field before they have finished their
studies.
Dynamic, live classes
The lecturers who teach students on-campus are the same lecturers who
teach online learning students. You have access to online streaming, and
lecturers will engage with you in live sessions, so you will still feel a part of a
community of learning.
Start online, finish on-campus
Your student experience will not be complete unless you are given the
chance to meet the other young like-minded students with whom you’ve
started the online journey. This is why you will have the flexibility to transition
back to on-campus learning, if you would like to.
All of this means is that the level of quality in the delivery of your educational
