At Curtin, we believe in hands-on learning that equips you with the skills employers need. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
On our Perth campus, you\u2019ll find a variety of learning spaces<\/a> that allow you to put theory into practice. Curtin\u2019s simulated health environments act as authentic learning environments in which students can develop and apply their skills in areas like nursing, occupational therapy and pharmacy. Law students can benefit from facilities like the John Curtin Law Clinic and the Jeanette Hacket Moot Court, where students partake in simulated court proceedings to practise debating and public speaking. <\/p>\n\n\n\n According to nursing student Remy Trusler, Curtin\u2019s commitment to practical learning greatly enhanced her academic experience and professional growth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI\u2019d have to say that one of the best things about [Bachelor of Science (Advanced Nursing)<\/a>] is the variety of clinical placements, where I\u2019m able to apply what I\u2019ve learned in class to a real clinical setting. It is an incredible experience working alongside and learning from so many different nurses, and gaining the confidence to put theory into practice,\u201d she shares. <\/p>\n\n\n\n With such a strong emphasis on real-world employability, it\u2019s no surprise that Curtin graduates are rated the best employees in Western Australia. Released in September 2025, the Australian Government\u2019s Quality Indicators for Learning and Teaching (QILT) Employer Satisfaction Survey (ESS)<\/a> revealed that employers\u2019 overall satisfaction level with Curtin graduates was the highest of all universities in the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Your resume is the first impression you make on potential employers, and we understand the importance of making it shine. We offer tools to help you create a stand-out resume, including: <\/p>\n\n\n\n Financial independence and professional growth can go hand in hand. With the Earn While You Learn<\/a> (EWYL) program, international students can apply to work part-time on campus at Curtin Perth while having the flexibility to study. <\/p>\n\n\n\n There are often openings in a range of departments, encompassing skill sets such as administration, HR, graphic design and customer service. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To find EWYL opportunities and sign up to be notified when relevant jobs become available, head to UniHub<\/a>, Curtin\u2019s exclusive job portal for students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Volunteering can be an eye-opening experience that adds to your resume and nurtures your personal growth.
