EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION
Charles Darwin University (CDU) is a truly unique institution, headquartered in the Northern Territory and spanning the whole country with delivery sites in cities like Brisbane, Darwin, Perth, Melbourne and Sydney and regional hubs such as Alice Springs, Katherine and Palmerston. The university’s multi-campus, virtual and online expertise, course profiles, delivery methods, research activities and operation, result from a commitment to the regions in which it operates. At CDU, international students will benefit from the university’s relatively smaller class sizes and a low student-to-teacher ratio that is in the range of one teacher to every 15-20 students. International students have 11 campuses and centres located around Australia where they could be studying, from tropical Darwin, the outback of Alice Springs or in one of Australia’s more famous cities, Sydney. CDU is ranked number four among Australian universities for undergraduate employment outcomes.
