To help you manage your transition to study, our flexible program allows you to customise your subject load – starting with one or two subjects part-time and building to full-time as your confidence grows.

The program introduces the fundamentals of core business functions such as marketing, accounting, economics, and maths.
One of the key benefits of opting to start your university studies with a diploma is the extra support Bond University College offers. You’ll be well prepared for academic study in your first few weeks with an intensive skills program that covers essay writing, critical reading, study techniques, time management and more; there’s more face-to-face teaching time in small group classes; and you’ll have access to one-on-one tutoring, workshops and targeted study help through the Academic Skills Centre.
