Newcastle Uni to establish international college
THE University of Newcastle is to establish an International College at Callaghan Campus that will create 200 jobs and bring an extra 1000 overseas students a year into the institution by 2020.
University vice-chancellor Nick Saunders signed an agreement with private college operator Navitas yesterday.
The Newcastle International College, to open next year, will be the 10th university-based college opened by Navitas in Australia and provide a means for foreign students to gain entry to university.
Students can either complete bridging course or undertake a one-year diploma in a chosen field and gain entry into the second year of an undergraduate degree the following year.
