A guide for future students — 2018 Degree and Diploma Guide — Ready for life and work Jennie Diep (cover image) Bachelor of Applied Sciences (Medical Radiations) As part of my studies, I had the opportunity to complete multiple clinical placements. Working with real patients gave me a valuable insight into what it takes to be a radiation therapist. RMIT is an internationally recognised university of technology, design and enterprise. While RMIT is one of Australia’s original universities—known for excellence in art and engineering, design and management, and architecture and finance—its approach is anything but old school. RMIT is all about real-life exploration, and encouraging students to apply knowledge and theory in practical settings. RMIT offers programs at all levels of study, across a wide range of areas. At RMIT, you’ll have access to state-of-theart facilities, inspiring teachers and mentors, and programs designed to set you up for success. If you’re ready to see how far you can go, start thinking about studying at RMIT. Since graduating, I have secured a job as an intern at Monash Health. My goal is to eventually work in MRI or ultrasound and gain experience working in Australia or perhaps overseas.

RMIT’s three Melbourne campuses are home to a dynamic and thriving student population. From the hustle of Melbourne’s CBD to the buzz of Brunswick and the tranquillity of Bundoora, each offers a unique and inspiring learning environment. Cutting-edge facilities, including the Swanston Academic Building and Design Hub, represent RMIT’s commitment to developing world-class learning, teaching, training and research spaces. Melbourne City Brunswick Bundoora At the centre of the city Part of a creative hub The great outdoors Situated on Swanston Street, the City campus has been an iconic part of the Melbourne CBD for more than 100 years. The campus is surrounded by cafes, galleries, theatres, restaurants and parks, and is easily accessed by public transport. Brunswick is where multicultural Melbourne meets its creative soul. The campus is home to around 3000 students and to many of RMIT’s design-related programs, including fashion and textile technologies. Situated in the northern Melbourne suburb of Bundoora, this campus is home to many of RMIT’s education, health and biomedical science programs. The campus features state-of-the-art learning and sporting facilities, and is surrounded by amazing bushland and parks. Melbourne Central railway station is convenient to most campus buildings, while a number of north-south Yarra trams run up and down Swanston Street. New Academic Street RMIT’s New Academic Street (NAS) project takes the Melbourne City campus’s integration with the CBD to the next level. As part of NAS, four ageing buildings on Swanston Street are being transformed into amazing, mixed-use spaces featuring learning and social environments including garden terraces, library, meeting spaces and a media precinct. 8 Getting to and from the campus is easy. Jewell railway station, on the Upfield line, is a short walk away and the number 19 tram runs from Elizabeth Street in the city to the campus. There is plenty of parking on and around campus, and it is well serviced by tram and bus services. — Make the most of uni life There’s more to uni life than lectures.

Filmon Teclai Bachelor of Business (Information Systems) RMIT Equity Travel Grant Thanks to an RMIT equity travel grant, Filmon was able to take part in a study tour to France. I used the grant to fund the cost of my tickets and accommodation. Having the grant allowed me to focus on my studies and make the most of the experience without having to stress about funding the trip. My most memorable moments were studying in Brest, a small but nice city. I enjoyed meeting the students from Brest Business School and touring around the city. I also enjoyed roaming around Paris and taking selfies next to the Eiffel Tower. 78 — Fees Tuition fees for Associate, Bachelor and Honours Degrees Commonwealth Supported Places (CSP) A Commonwealth supported place (CSP) is a place at university where the tuition fee is jointly paid by you and the Commonwealth Government.

The table below indicates what your annual fee would be for a full-time study load in 2017 if enrolled in courses from a single band. A proportionate fee applies for more or less than the full-time study load or for enrolment in courses from a combination of bands. For more information visit www.rmit.edu. au/study-with-us/applying-to-rmit/localstudent-applications/fees/fees-by-levelof-study .
