Approximately 2/3 of students are undergraduate, while 1/3 are post graduate. Students are supported by approximately 100,000 university employees.

Each university is self accrediting and rate sits on rules and regulations. They receive a large amount of funding from the government, but students are still required to pay fees to study.
Upon completing an Australian University program you will be awarded a Bachelor degree, Honours degree, Graduate certificate, Graduate diploma, Masters degree, or Doctoral degree.
In comparison to Vocational Education and Training, which delivers shorter, more practical courses for specific industry requirements, university courses tend to be theory based. However, should you be studying for a profession such as engineering, dentistry, or teaching, the courses will have practical components as well.
