Most Swinburne campus students have the option to undertake Swinburne Online units as a mode of study. You can either take these units as electives, or if your course is offered online, you can opt to study core units for your major stream of study.

Throughout your online studies you will have continued access to the campus facilities. You will also be in a small classes of 20 – 30 students along with a dedicated tutor who has academic and industry experience. Studying online works just like studying on-campus, but from your chosen location.

It’s all part of Swinburne’s initiative to ensure your degree works around your lifestyle.

How to enrol in a Swinburne Online unit

1. Make sure the unit is available for online study

Before enrolling in your online unit you need to make sure it’s available at Swinburne Online.

International students on a student visa (ESOS): As of 1 January 2018, you can only complete a maximum of one-third of your course online. If you exceed this limit, Swinburne will remove you from online unit(s) until you meet this requirement. Remember, you must always maintain a full-time study load across the year and in each compulsory study period for a course, you must be studying at least one unit that is not by distance or online learning See also: I’m an international student, what does one-third of my course look like?
