What's news?

How do you rate our teaching? Tell us now.

The Student Evaluation of Learning and Teaching (SELT) survey is now open. It’s your chance to rate our teaching so we know what’s what. What’s working for you? And what do we need to do better? It’s all anonymous so you can be totally honest.

Everyone who completes the survey will go into the draw to win one of three $100 eGift cards. The earlier you do the survey, the more chance you’ll have. So rate us now.

Watch out for scammers on job boards

Scammers are targeting unsuspecting students on job boards by posting fake jobs while posing as real organisations. Students are being asked for money to secure the job or to provide other things such as Apple gift cards. Be on the lookout for not-quite-right email addresses and, if you’re not sure, phone the company itself.
