What is Open Universities Australia (OUA)?

UPDATED 18 AUG 2026 | 5:44AM
Open Universities Australia (OUA) is a platform that provides the opportunity for students to study a range of university courses online. Only some degrees will be available through OUA. 
When you complete a Curtin degree through OUA, you will get the same quality degree as if you'd studied directly through Curtin. Upon completion, your final award will be a Curtin award.
