Chapter 2 – Student and general information

Australian Technology Network

This information is current as at January 2008. The latest information is available from the Australian Technology Network.

The Australian Technology Network (ATN) is a union between five leading Australian universities who share a heritage of working with industry and a united vision for the future. These universities are:

  • Curtin University of Technology
  • Queensland University of Technology
  • Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology
  • University of South Australia
  • University of Technology, Sydney.

    • Together, these universities teach more than 180,000 students, or 20 per cent of the Australian university system, with one in four international students choosing to study at an ATN university. What distinguishes ATN universities is the way they use their links with industry and the latest technology to provide professional courses for tomorrow's leaders. The ATN's aim is to contribute to Australia's social and economic wealth, while championing the principles of access and equity that have ensured its members are the universities of first choice for more students.

    Advanced entry to ATN courses

    One of the benefits that the ATN provides to its students is a flexible course transfer system. The ATN Vice-Chancellors have agreed to develop a system of transfers for students in related courses across the ATN universities. This system provides for block credit for previous study at an ATN university to a related course in another ATN university. Inquiries regarding related courses should be directed to the Student Information Centre/Office of the ATN member. ATN students who are considering transfer to another capital city are encouraged to ask for details from their home institution.
