NCHS offers Australian Degree that can be fully completed locally
~ Partners with Federation University to offer best-in-class Australian learning to Sri Lanka ~
Leading tertiary education provider, the Nawaloka College of Higher Studies (NCHS), recently announced a partnership with Federation University, Australia, one of the top 500 universities for education worldwide, to offer Degrees to Sri Lankan students that can be completed 100% locally. Students wishing to complete an international degree can now do so without needing to travel abroad for the final part of the course, thus saving money and learning from the comfort of home.
With this partnership, NCHS now offers a Bachelor of Information Technology and Bachelor of Business degree that can be completed in full-time mode. While the full degree can be studied at NCHS, students also have the option of completing part of their program locally and the remainder in Australia at one of Federation’s campuses located in Ballarat, Berwick (Melbourne), the Gippsland and the Wimmera regions, all in Victoria, or its Queensland campus in Brisbane.
Students wishing to join the degree programme can do so right after A/Levels and enroll directly into the first year, while students who have completed their O/Levels can enroll after completing a foundation course offered by NCHS. The degree programmes are delivered via a blended learning method which comprises both online and classroom lectures. Upon successfully completing their degree, students will receive their qualification directly from Federation University, and NCHS will facilitate an internship at a leading local company for these graduates.
Speaking about this new offering, Victor Ramanan, Deputy Chairman/CEO, Nawaloka College of Higher Studies said, “At NCHS we have always put the needs of our students first and found ways and means of helping them complete their higher education on time. Even during the current pandemic, we have ensured that all our programmes have been completed on time. This partnership with Federation University, Australia is another step in that direction, and we are proud to partner with such a prestigious university.”
One of the oldest Universities in Australia, yet modern and progressive in its work, Federation University has a strong tradition of education and training delivery, perfected over 150 years. Supporting students to achieve success in their studies and in life is something the university is proud of. Not only is Federation University in the top 250 young universities in the world as rated by Times Higher Education, they’re highly ranked in Australia too. The university is number one in Victoria for graduate outcomes for six years running! Plus, the Good Universities Guide 2022 has rated them number one in Australia for first-generation student enrolments, number one in Victoria for graduate full time employment, skills development, student support and social equity. Featuring small class sizes and therefore high-quality, personalised teaching, it offers all the facilities and opportunities of a world-class Australian university, in a supportive and diverse community.
