About this course

Who is this program for?

The Diploma Program has been designed specifically for international students. Our Diplomas make it easy to adjust to university, with:

  • smaller classes and at least 20% extra teaching time
  • additional English and academic support

  • course material equivalent to First Year courses within the UNSW Sydney degree, and
  • access to the same facilities and resources as undergraduate students.

With an innovative First Year equivalent curriculum, you will gain a solid background in the natural sciences, programming and introductory engineering courses. You will also get to design, develop and build your first prototype in your first engineering design course. This will give you a taster of what it is like for engineers in the real world.
