Curtin University of Technology Geraldton Campus
Información
We have a strong commitment to international engagement with Australia's third largest international student population. We maintain a campus in Sarawak, Malaysia while also conducting face-to-face teaching in a number of countries. This cultural diversity adds a rich and valuable dimension to our campus atmosphere and also prepares our graduates to live and work in an increasingly global environment.
We have a long standing commitment to indigenous education and culture and have the highest enrolment of Indigenous Australians of any university in the country. Our Centre for Aboriginal Studies is recognised as a national leader in its field and we were the first university in Australia to sign a Statement of Reconciliation.
Curtin is also fundamentally committed to providing regional education within Western Australia through campuses and education centres spread across the state including Esperance, Geraldton, Kalgoorlie, Karratha, Margaret River, Northam, Port Hedland and Albany. We also have a campus in Sydney.
We are widely recognised for the practical and applied nature of our courses, which equip graduates with essential skills through exposure to industry and business, and our research, which focuses on solving real world problems. This combination enables our graduates to be effective in the workplace immediately upon graduation.
As part of this approach, Curtin has always fostered successful partnerships with industry, business and government to enhance the quality of our scholarship, teaching and research. We will continue to develop existing partnerships and to establish new ones in areas relevant to our research and teaching.
Situated on the heart of the Batavia Coast, Geraldton offers a near-perfect lifestyle year-round. Offering a temperate climate, range of entertainment, shopping, fishing and some world-accredited sporting facilities, Geraldton is the regional city of the Mid West Region of Western Australia.
Geraldton is the hub of the hinterland activity. As a port city it is the centre of the fishing, manufacturing, construction, agriculture and tourism industries of the Mid West Region. Geraldton is renowned world-wide for the quality rock lobster fishing off our coast and is often referred to as the world leader in this area, a result of the pristine waters along the Batavia Coast.
Well known as the "Sun City", Geraldton is also a sought after destination for chasers of the wind. Windsurfers are attracted throughout the year to the perfect conditions for their water sport and the national competitions that are held here annually. The magnificent beaches and sunny weather plays haven to a multitude of water activities or just enjoyed for a leisurely sun-bake or stroll.
