Common Questions
Most bachelor degrees take between three and six years to complete. As a double degree, it has more units overall and will add time compared to a single bachelor degree. The exact duration depends on whether you study full-time or part-time, and whether you study during summer and winter terms.
Double degrees let you study two areas at once, graduating with broad expertise. You can combine your passions or pair complementary skills to open up diverse career pathways. You'll finish both qualifications faster than taking them consecutively, and gain a competitive edge.
Yes, real industry experience is guaranteed in all Swinburne bachelor degrees through the Work Integrated Learning program. You'll get on the direct line to your career with projects, placements and internships that connect you with industry before you graduate.
There are multiple entry pathways. Year 12 students can apply through VTAC by making Swinburne their number one preference. Non-year 12 students can apply directly via Swinburne's online application portal. If you don't meet the traditional academic requirements, Swinburne offers pathway options such as UniLink diplomas, TAFE, and Fee-Free UniReady programs.
A standard three-year bachelor degree generally has 24 units. As a double degree, you will need to complete additional units beyond the standard 24, as the double degree has more units overall to cover both qualifications.

Honestly I was lost when I first started looking at Australian colleges. There are just too many options and every agent gives you different info. A friend told me about FindTheCourses and within a week I had shortlisted 3 programs that actually matched my budget and visa situation. My advisor Sanjay was super helpful — never felt like I was being pushed into anything.
