Applications open today for Swinburne Online degree programs, a joint venture of Swinburne University of Technology and SEEK developed for 100 percent online delivery.

 

According to Swinburne, the new programs are designed to meet the educational needs of busy working adults and are able to be completed 100 percent online.

Swinburne's Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academic) Professor Shirley Leitch, who also chairs Swinburne Online, said: "The high quality of our program design, our interactive approach to online teaching, and our high-touch student support, are the Swinburne Online points of difference."

"Put simply, we intend to be Australia's premier online education provider.

"Through Swinburne Online, busy working adults will have access to our high quality programs and student experience, in an interactive and supportive environment that has been designed specifically for them."

SEEK Education's Managing Director Peter Everingham said SEEK Learning was always looking to provide students with the very best online programs.

"Our goal is to find the right course for every student and the addition of Swinburne Online programs supports our client-focused approach," Peter said.

"The addition of Swinburne Online's high calibre degrees and innovative learning environment ensures we will continue to offer the best education choices to our students.

"This joint venture really demonstrates the importance of the online channel in providing high quality education to all Australians."

Swinburne Online's initial offerings include degrees in business, marketing, communications, psychology, information systems and public relations.

Courses commence in March 2012, and more information can be found here.
