Higher education diplomas

Federation’s higher education diplomas are your ideal pathway into undergraduate studies.

If you don’t meet our academic and/or English language requirements, you can still achieve your dream career by studying one of our higher education diplomas in a range of specialisations. You’re also guaranteed entry into the first or second year of an undergraduate degree when you successfully complete the diploma.

Throughout your diploma studies, you’ll study the same topics as you would in the first year of the matched degree, so you can be rest assured that the teaching is delivered to the standard as a full undergraduate degree, plus you’ll receive a standalone higher education diploma qualification upon completion too.

The key benefit to studying a higher education diploma with Federation is the additional support you’ll receive throughout your studies. You’ll receive additional contact hours for your tutorials and laboratory classes, ensuring you have more opportunities for personalised learning in small classes. You’ll also be immersed in our higher education culture from your first day, with no need to change campuses and resettle when you commence your Bachelor degree studies – you’ll remain at the same campus the whole time.

Majors are available in Business, Engineering and Information Technology.
