Volunteering helps students develop on-the-job skills, build their resumes, and create valuable networks, and provides the opportunity to practise speaking English and make new friends.

Special-interest and social clubs auu.org.au/clubs For a university student, how time is spent outside the classroom is just as important as how time is spent in lectures, tutorials and practicals. Students have the opportunity to fine-tune their leadership skills, network with potential employers, master language skills, or simply hang out, socialise with other students, or disengage from formal studies for awhile by getting involved in a student club or society. There are more than 100 different non-sporting clubs and societies active on campus. These range from faculty student societies to religious, cultural and political, and activity-based clubs, and if students’ can’t find what they’re looking for, they can easily start their own.

Student media On Dit auu.org.au/ondit The student newspaper On Dit (pronounced ‘on dee’) was established in 1932 and continues to provide a lively forum for student news and views. Editors are elected each year, and they are joined by a large group of students who contribute articles, sub-edit, proofread, and help with distribution.

Sporting clubs and facilities Adelaide University Sport www.adelaide.edu.au/sports/ Adelaide University Sport (AU Sport) gives students access to an extensive range of sporting facilities and clubs. Catering for everyone from elite athletes through to social players, AU Sport exists to provide and promote the best possible sporting and recreational environment for the University community. There are almost 40 sports to choose from, ranging from bushwalking and rowing to water, field and indoor sports. AU Sport hosts Australia’s largest university snow trip and also organises teams for Australian University Sport events, including the Australian University Games (AUG),

Southern University Games and Australian University Championships (snow sports, distance running, rowing, triathlon, surfing and orienteering). Visit unisport.com.au for information on how to get involved. While many sporting clubs enjoy their own permanent facilities, students also have access to the University’s extensive playing fields and well-maintained grounds. Sporting equipment and occasional ground hire is available via the AU Sport office.

University of Adelaide students benefit from the advantages that come from choosing to study in a city where accommodation of all types, including university-managed accommodation, is not only accessible but more affordable than in other Australian cities.

Accommodation

Seek assistance from the University Accommodation Service Students unfamiliar with Adelaide are encouraged to consider living in managed student accommodation during their first year of university. Managed student accommodation provides new students with the opportunity to become better acquainted with the city, settle into their academic program and make new friends, without having to worry about the challenges of the private rental market.

Long-term student accommodation adelaide.edu.au/accommodation The University assists international students to obtain suitable longer-term housing. Students may choose any of the following options.

The University of Adelaide Village The University of Adelaide Village is the largest of the University’s student accommodation properties and is home to over 400 students. Students living at the Village experience the safety and security of having access to University staff on-site, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. All students need to bring are their personal belongings, as furniture, kitchen appliances, utilities (including electricity), phone and Internet are all included in the accommodation fees. The only additional costs are for meals (students must cook and clean for themselves) and the on-site, coin-operated laundry facilities.

Long-term student accommodation options This table matches long-term student accommodation options to individual needs. Accommodation types

Student profile

University residential environments

Universitymanaged student accommodation

New students to the University, without a local support network, looking to establish a solid foundation for ongoing academic success, with direct access to University learning and student support services within their residential environment.

Residential colleges Commercial student accommodation

Urbanest

Students looking for the convenience and comfort of packaged accommodation in a student residential environment.

Independent living

Share/rental accommodation

Students with the skills and experience to enter into tenancy arrangements and pursue an independent lifestyle.

Residential colleges Five residential colleges are affiliated with the University: Aquinas, Lincoln, St Ann’s and St Mark’s colleges, which are primarily for undergraduate students, and Kathleen Lumley College, which is suited to postgraduate and mature-age students. These colleges are situated in North Adelaide, within easy walking distance of the main North Terrace campus. A residential college is also located at Roseworthy, one hour’s drive north of the city, for students whose study is based at the Roseworthy campus. Most college rooms are single study bedrooms. All colleges are co-educational, with shared bathrooms. The colleges generally provide three meals per day—no individual cooking facilities are available.

Commercial student accommodation Commercial student accommodation refers to purpose-built student accommodation facilities, situated off-campus and managed by private management companies. These facilities offer fully-furnished, self-contained apartments that provide students with the flexibility to live alone or share with others in a student community. Some room types in commercial student accommodation are offered specifically to couples. In addition to rent, students may need to budget for additional expenses, including: >> gas >> electricity >> telephone connection (optional) >> Internet connection (optional).

Places in commercial student accommodation facilities are offered on a 6 or 12-month fixed-term lease agreement.

It is important to note that these facilities are not directly affiliated with the University of Adelaide and students are advised to inspect them before securing accommodation in a commercial student accommodation facility.

Private rental and share accommodation The University of Adelaide Accommodation Service understands that affordable (share) accommodation can be found in the private rental market, which is why the University offers a rental database (adelaide.edu.au/ accommodation) for the exclusive use of University of Adelaide students. The rental database can be accessed from the Accommodation Service, Level 4, Hub Central, North Terrace campus by enrolled students of the University of Adelaide with a user name and password. The database is only promoted among the University community, which means that most of the listings are being offered by people who are affiliated with the University and would like to share their room/property with a University of Adelaide student. Students who want to find share or rental accommodation when they arrive in Adelaide are encouraged to book temporary accommodation in the first instance. Once in Adelaide, students should visit the Accommodation Service for information on all available options, access to the rental database and support during the process of identifying and securing quality share or rental accommodation. Students are discouraged from sending money from offshore to secure share or rental accommodation without having had the opportunity to inspect accommodation first.

Accommodation for families Students accompanied by family members will find that private rental accommodation in houses or apartments is the most suitable accommodation option. It is easier for an individual student to initially travel to Adelaide on their own in order to arrange suitable permanent family accommodation. Spouses and children who arrive later can then move directly into permanent accommodation without requiring temporary arrangements.

Arrival reception and temporary accommodation Temporary accommodation and arrival reception services are available to commencing international students. Eligible students can book an arrival reception service and be met by a University representative at Adelaide Airport, via a domestic or international flight. Students will then be transported to their accommodation. Eligible students who choose not to secure long-term managed student accommodation for their arrival in Adelaide may also be eligible for seven nights of temporary accommodation booked through the University. It is important to note that temporary accommodation options arranged through the University are unlikely to be extended further than a period of seven nights due to high demand for short-term accommodation during the traditional student intake periods. For more information on eligibility criteria and arrival reception and temporary accommodation services, please contact: Accommodation Service The University of Adelaide Level 4 Hub Central SA 5005 Australia Opening hours: Mon to Fri, 9 am to 5 pm Telephone: +61 8 8313 5220 Fax: +61 8 8313 3338 Email: [email protected] Web: adelaide.edu.au/accommodation Skype: uoaaccommodation For more information on accommodation, visit: adelaide.edu.au/accommodation

Money matters International applicants need to consider a range of financial issues, including the cost of living, health insurance and tuition fees, before applying to the University. All students should allow at least AUD $500 per year for textbooks and basic study materials. Depending on the program, other costs may include specialist equipment (e.g. laboratory coats, microscopes, stethoscopes), optional supplementary reading and academic program materials, field trips, and expenses such as thesis preparation, printing and binding.

Planning a budget Adelaide is more affordable than other Australian cities, such as Sydney, Melbourne, Perth and Brisbane. Accommodation is the largest variable expense for students—it can cost anywhere from around AUD $135 per week for shared private accommodation outside the city centre, to AUD $248 for University-managed accommodation within the city centre or AUD $385 for private sole-occupancy accommodation. There can also be large costs associated with setting up private accommodation, as most private rental houses and apartments are rented unfurnished.

Application fee An application fee of AUD $100 must be paid with the University of Adelaide postgraduate online application. An exemption may apply for some government or externally-sponsored students.

Tuition fees International students are required to pay international student tuition fees, which cover the cost of teaching and many student support services. The indicative annual tuition fee quoted in this prospectus is based on the standard full-time enrolment load of 24 units per year or 12 units per semester. The quoted fee is reviewed annually and may increase in future years. Each student will be advised of their fee schedule in their offer of

26

Money matters

admission to the University. Fees may vary depending on enrolment load e.g. if students ‘overload’ or ‘underload’, fees may be increased or decreased accordingly. New international students are required to pay a specified tuition fee deposit when accepting an offer of admission. The payment will be counted as credit towards tuition fees in the first enrolment period. After enrolment, students are invoiced for the balance of their fees in that enrolment period. The University invoices students (or their sponsor) each enrolment period according to enrolment load.

Student Services and Amenities Fee International students commencing in 2018 will be required to pay an annual Student Services and Amenities Fee, which will cover activities such as clubs, sporting and recreational activities, and many other services. In 2017, the fee was AUD $294 and it is indexed annually. For more information, visit: adelaide.edu.au/student/finance/ssaf/

Refund policy All applicants must read the University’s policy on refunds and adjustments before accepting an offer of admission. The policy complies with all requirements for tuition fee refunds stipulated in the Education Services for Overseas Students (ESOS) Act 2000, associated Australian Government regulations, and the ESOS National Code of Practice (2007). For policy details, visit: adelaide.edu.au/student/finance/refunds/

Health and medical International students and their dependants are required to have health insurance in Australia through the Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) scheme. The University’s

preferred provider of OSHC is Allianz Global Assistance. Visit: oshcallianzassistance. com.au/?AgentID=238236 The Department of Immigration and Border Protection requires all student visa holders to have OSHC for the duration of their visa. For additional information, please refer to: international.adelaide.edu.au/ life/visas/healthoshc Based on 2017 premiums, 12 months of OSHC Essentials cover is AUD $609 for a single student. A dual family policy is AUD $$2,375, and a multi-family policy is AUD $3,438. OSHC covers up to 100% of the scheduled fee for most medical services and 100% of the scheduled fees in hospitals and emergency ambulance. Students may consider taking out additional insurance for extras such as dental work, physiotherapy and optometry.

Students with families Students who bring their families with them to Australia will need to take into account additional costs associated with health cover, housing, food, transport, childcare and education expenses. For information and advice for international students with families, visit international.adelaide.edu.au/life and enter ‘family’ in the ‘Find what you’re looking for’ search box. School attendance is compulsory for all children aged six to 17 unless the senior school student becomes employed, or is engaged in an apprenticeship or alternative tertiary study. Most children start school at five years of age. Children may attend government-operated schools or independent schools. All schooling services attract a fee. At the time of printing, the fees for government operated schools were AUD $4,700 per year for primary school (from Reception to Year 7) and AUD $5,600 per year for secondary school (from Years 8 to 12). These fees include intensive English language

development and support if required. A registration fee is charged per family. This is currently AUD $600 in the first year and AUD $300 in subsequent years. For details visit internationalstudents.sa.edu.au and select ‘Children of International Tertiary Students’ from the menu.

Part-time work Many international students and their dependants hope to obtain part-time work to supplement funds for living costs. It may be possible to secure employment; however, we advise that students should not rely on part-time work for essential expenses, as obtaining a job is not guaranteed and can take time. Students should also be aware that the workload for many programs is intense and so they may not have the time to undertake employment as well as study full-time. Under current visa regulations, students have the right to work after their studies in Australia have commenced. Students may work up to 40 hours per fortnight during term time, and unrestricted hours during published University holidays. The Australian Government imposes certain restrictions on the employment of dependants or spouses of people holding student visas. For more information on working while studying, visit: border.gov.au/Trav/Stud/More then select ‘Work conditions for Student visa holders’ from the menu.

Student personal information

Doctor of Clinical Dentistry for semester 1, 2018 commencement

30 April 2017

Australia has strict privacy laws that mean there are very limited circumstances in which the University can release personal or academic information about a student.

Study modes Online learning

External learning

The University of Adelaide provides students with the option to study some of its popular graduate certificate, graduate diploma and master’s level courses 100% online. This gives busy, working students the flexibility to study in their own time and from the comfort of their home. Students receive and submit all their assignments online.

Some postgraduate courses are offered externally, allowing students to complete their degree within their own country, sometimes without ever travelling to Australia.

Students are still required to complete the same volume and type of work as a traditional campus-based student and within a particular timeframe, but do not have the added complication of having to apply for a visa or finance the cost of living in Australia for the duration of their studies. Many online courses also offer up to four term start dates throughout the year (January, April, July and October), allowing students greater enrolment flexibility.

Students receive course materials and resources through the post and complete their assignments at home, before mailing them back to Adelaide for assessment. Exams can be organised offshore for students and are attended by official invigilators. For certain courses and electives, students may be required to participate in virtual lectures online, or attend workshops in their home country or even in Adelaide. Students will be advised of these flexible learning options by individual faculties when submitting their course application.

External learning programs

International students in Australia External or online study is available to international students already based in Australia in certain circumstances. Some programs are delivered in a combination of study modes, i.e. internal and external, face-to-face and online. International students on a Student Visa who enrol in such programs can study up to 25% of their total program externally. They must be enrolled in at least one internal or faceto-face course in each compulsory teaching period while studying in Australia. Alternatively, students may apply for a specific type of temporary visa, which allows them to undertake study but does not require them to be enrolled internally or full-time at the University of Adelaide.

Global Learning The University of Adelaide is committed to providing its students with opportunities to study overseas. This includes our international students. The University offers international students the possibility of a ‘third country experience’ through a range of programs including student exchange, study tours, summer and winter schools, internships and placements. With careful planning there is no need to extend a degree, as credit usually is awarded for the study undertaken overseas. Students participating in an exchange program remain enrolled as full-time students at the University of Adelaide while overseas. Students in an exchange program continue to pay their usual tuition fees to the University of Adelaide and do not pay tuition fees at the host university. International students are encouraged to apply to participate in Global Learning experiences to add a further dimension to their University of Adelaide education. There are many exciting opportunities in the Americas, Europe, Asia-Pacific region and Africa. For more information on these programs, visit: adelaide.edu.au/global-learning

Industry professors

Recognised by

5 professional accreditation bodies By joining our school, students will benefit from our bigger-picture view of the world. Our curriculum focuses on the built environment as a whole, not just its individual components. We specialise in three particular streams of the discipline: architecture, landscape architecture, and urban design. In order to become a practising architect, students will need to complete a minimum of five years study. Firstly, students must complete an undergraduate degree in architectural design (three years), then a master’s program (two years). The University of Adelaide is the only institution in South Australia to offer a double degree pathway at master’s level in Architecture. Completing the double master’s requires only one extra year of study, and qualifies students in two disciplines, thereby enhancing their career prospects.

Features of our school >> The school has invested in three ‘industry

professors’, each of whom is an awardwinning professional in their own right. They bring a high degree of inspiration and reality to their teaching. >> The school’s internship program provides

master’s students with professional work placements within Australian or overseas businesses and professional practices. >> We recently completed major additions

to our facilities, investing over $1 million in new equipment to enhance our students’ experiences. We provide 24-hour access for students to use the CAAD Studio and state-of-the-art model-making laboratory, which is among the best equipped architectural design labs at any university in Australia.

>> Planning Policy and Regulation


>> Planning Theory and Practice Urban planning is concerned with how we lay out, regulate and manage the cities, neighbourhood and places in which we live our lives. As cities become larger and more complex an increasing proportion of the world’s population lives in cities so it is important that we manage their growth. We do this to provide a good quality of life for all residents, ensure employment opportunities, protect the natural and historic built heritage and ensure that cities are resilient in the face of natural disaster threats and climate change. Planners’ central concern is to ensure that our cities are attractive places to live and work now and that they are sustainable into the future. The Master of Planning provides a broad based education in Planning covering urbanisation, policy, theory, practice and planning law. The urban development process is a central area for study. Emphasis is placed on professional planning skills at both the strategic and local level using real world cases and problems to enhance student learning. A degree in urban planning opens the door to a wide range of employment in both the public and private sectors and is applicable in many countries around the world.

Career readiness Graduates are well equipped to pursue careers in urban and regional planning, and environmental planning.

Urban planning is concerned with how we design, regulate and manage the cities, neighbourhoods and places in which we live our lives. Cities are becoming larger and more complex and an increasing proportion of the world’s population is now urbanised. Urban Designers focus on the physical design of city spaces so buildings and urban spaces work seamlessly together to create places. A central concern for urban designers is to ensure that urban streets and spaces are attractive and safe places to live and work and that they are well adapted to change into the future. The location of Planning within the School of Architecture and Built Environment means that the program emphasises the importance of the design of spaces and places. Design literacy is central to the Urban Design course as design literate planners are keenly sought after by many employers. The Urban Design program prepares students for work in government or the private sector both within Australia and elsewhere in the world.

Career readiness Graduates are well equipped to pursue careers as an urban designer, planner, project administrator or project manager.

As the world becomes more urbanised, the role of property developers becomes increasingly critical. All countries are witnessing a huge amount of public and private investment in land, buildings, offices, housing, retail and recreation facilities, in rapidly expanding urban areas around the world. The challenge of ensuring these developments are safe, productive and sustainable and provide a high quality of accommodation for their occupiers, as well as a return on investment for their sponsors is the task of property developers. Investors and businesses also need to be assured they have allocated resources in property in a wise and timely manner. Property experts are qualified to provide advice in these circumstances. The Master of Property draws on expertise across the Faculty of the Professions to provide a holistic approach to the study of property. The degree is hosted by the School of Architecture and Built Environment and places property development as its focus. Graduates of the Master of Property will be attractive to a range of employers, including property development companies, property consultants, government agencies, lending institutions, and large companies with significant property portfolios in Australia and internationally.

Career readiness Graduates are well equipped to pursue careers as a property analyst, property development adviser, property investment adviser or property manager.

The Master of Arts program consists of core research courses, including a thesis, and specialisations that work much as majors do in the Bachelor of Arts. The program currently offers specialisations in: >> International Studies >> Environmental Studies >> Creative Practice in Music (extension pathway only). Students will be challenged to think, perform and grow to new levels, and will develop an enviable suite of transferable skills.

Areas of specialisation Creative Practice in Music Creative Practice in Music will equip students with practical, theoretical and conceptual tools to enter the world of music in the 21st century as a creative artist. This program focuses on the use of digital technology across the fields of sonic art, sound design and composition, including the application to contemporary media such as film and games. Students are encouraged to explore a variety of different approaches when compiling a portfolio of creative work. These should include: individual and collaborative and styles from popular to experimental. Environmental Studies Develop an understanding of the principles and practice of environmental policy, planning and governance. Students will address how global warming, water shortages, deforestation and the like are to be managed. Responding effectively to environmental problems involves far more than the application of scientific knowledge, or the ‘top-down’ regulation of people and their environments. Government policies must be negotiated with, and implemented through, diverse privatesector agents and a differentiated civil society. Managing environmental problems therefore entails a new set of approaches, including government, public-private partnerships, economic tools and incentives, democratic decentralisation and risk management. The program addresses how the signature environmental issues of our time are to be managed; now and into the future.

Family Enterprises are unique in many ways and our Graduate Certificate reflects that people working in them are unique too. This program equips participants with the knowledge required to not only grow a family business, but to also make the most of what graduates have at present too. Our program is taught by people that know family businesses the best. Students will also learn from their cohort who also work in the industry. Whether students are a first or third generation, or if they happen to work alongside a founding family, this Graduate Certificate will ensure students get the most from the environment they are working in.

Career readiness The GCFE’s courses ensure that students have the necessary knowledge and skills to pursue a career in the family enterprise sector, either as an adviser to, or a leader in, a family business. The GCFE provides a great opportunity for students to network and learn from each other’s experience in advising, or working in, family businesses. This may result in new family business clients for advisers or new job opportunities for those currently working in a family business (e.g. a next generation family member having the opportunity to gain work experience outside their family business). The University of Adelaide Careers Service prepares, inspires and empowers students to achieve successful career transitions and connect with industry.

Areas of specialisation As family enterprise is a broad subject area that can be applied across many different industries and occupations, students can use their own chosen field or interest and apply this to their assignments and class discussions.

>> Advances in Wine Science

The viticulturalist typically works closely with the winemaker to achieve the desired winemaking outcome. The winemaker utilises their training in the science of winemaking (oenology), to process grapes for the production of white, red still and sparkling and fortified wines. The viticulturalist/winemaker often contributes to in-house research, sales and promotion of the finished product.

>> Research Methodology and Experimentation

Throughout the program, there is an emphasis on the key technical methods and sensory (wine tasting) skills required for a career in viticulture and oenology.

>> Topics in Soil and Land Systems

The Waite campus is co-located with a number of research partners, providing a stimulating and unique environment for training, exposing candidates to the latest technologies and enabling them to learn from leaders in their field.

Career readiness Well paid career opportunities exist in the grape and wine industry within Australia and elsewhere. Graduates will be qualified to manage a vineyard, direct and carry out vineyard operations, direct wine-making operations and manage the winery.

>> Introductory Winemaking* >> Winemaking at Vintage* >> Viticultural Science* >> Viticultural Methods and Procedures* *Master and graduate diploma courses.

Electives >> Wine Packaging and Quality Management
