About Curtin College
Curtin College is the pathway college for Curtin University, teaching on Curtin's Bentley campus in Perth. Its diplomas in commerce, computing, engineering, health sciences, architecture and construction, and communication and design lead into Curtin bachelor's degrees, and its Masters Qualifying Program (MQP) leads into Curtin master's degrees. It is part of the Navitas group.
Indian students who just miss Curtin's direct entry use it to start a Curtin degree with smaller classes and lower English scores (IELTS 5.5 for most Stage 2 diplomas). Students with Class 12 can usually start at Stage 2, which takes 8 to 12 months. Moving on to the Curtin degree depends on meeting the required grades.
