Bond in your country
Study in Australia
Located on the beautiful Gold Coast, Bond University graduates may be eligible to apply for an extended three-year post-study work visa. The University offers a range of bachelor’s degrees and professional master’s programs which may meet the duration requirements for students who intend to apply for this visa.
Famous for its breathtaking beaches, you can be swimming and surfing within 10 minutes of our campus. Beyond the beaches, Gold Coast encompasses subtropical hinterland for rainforest walks and waterfalls, a booming culinary scene and multiple theme parks.

The Bond difference
Accelerated degrees and post-study work visas
By undertaking three-semesters-per-year instead of the usual two, graduates can accelerate their study and finish a six semester Bachelor's degree in two years. Bond also offers Professional Master's programs which combine five months of practical industry placement enabling students to be eligible to apply for a post-study work visa to gain local work experience. Since Bond is located outside of Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, you could be eligible to obtain a work visa for three years instead of the standard two.
With Australia's lowest student to teacher ratio, you will thrive in smaller study groups and have access to unparalleled academics and technological resources. This means:
- academics know you by name
- we have an open door policy allowing you to chat with your academics at any time
- unprecedented access to Bond's facilities
- greater internship and work experience opportunities
Internships and work experience
Bond University prides itself on helping students gain work experience while studying. Bond has outstanding links with industry partners and a global alumni network active in over 80 countries. The Career Development Centre is your one-stop shop for all career support. Our employment services specialists can help you with every aspect of the internship or job search process - from identifying your career goals and developing your resume through to getting you ready for that all-important interview and connecting you with Blue Chip industry partners.
Our Beyond Bond program ensures that undergraduate students develop key employability and interpersonal skills through internships, volunteering, professional activities and global experiences.
