COURSE DESCRIPTION
Dean's Scholars degrees are highly recognisable, giving students the edge in competitive employment. The degree offers a challenging and enriched educational experience for high-achieving students who want to perform above the level normally expected. Students are also encouraged to continue their studies through the completion of Honours and research programs.
Students complete the normal course requirements for the degree, but receive special privileges as they study such as accelerated learning, where possible, and academic mentoring. Dean’s Scholars are also encouraged to contribute to the scholarly life of the Faculty through events in the Faculty's postgraduate program.
Places are limited each year. Current students who have achieved a weighted average mark (WAM) of 80 at the end of one year of full-time study in a relevant degree may apply to transfer to the Dean’s Scholar degree
Entry Requirements
Academic requirements, English requirements and credit transfer information are available from the course finder .
Applications
To apply for the Dean's Scholars programs, new students should include the relevant degree as one of your UAC preferences (see the UAC guide for the appropriate code).
Course Requirements/Eligibility
Course programs for the Dean's Scholars degrees are identical to the current non-Dean's Scholars degrees offered by the Faculty - see the Bachelor of Information Technology Handbook entry.
Continuation in the Dean's Scholars degrees will normally be dependent on the student achieving a WAM of at least 80 in each year of study. Students who do not meet the required average will be transferred to the equivalent non-Dean's Scholars degree.
Please note that the Dean's Scholars Program is not offered to part-time students and is only available to International Students who are eligible to apply through UAC (for new students), or who have completed one year of full-time study at UOW (for current students). The program is not offered for double degrees and is not a scholarship.
