Queensland University of Technology Courses and Fees 2025

• The course curriculum is of medium-level difficulty with lots of case scenarios given for learning. It covers a wide range of topics, such as Cytogenetics, Molecular Genetics, Mitochondrial Diseases related to genetics, ethics and Modern technologies in the field of Genomics.
• The positive of the course is it involves assignments which allow us to research and read several research papers which help us to improve our knowledge in the field. The negative of the course is that it is very theoretical and has fewer practicals.
• The course has most of the units online; therefore, it can be done at one's own pace during the day or evenings, with end-of-week discussions involving the professors and other students.
• Around 25 students are enrolled in a particular unit, which can vary in specialities chosen for units. In my cohort, there were only 3 Indians, including me.

• The entire course was 144 credits. With each study unit accounting for 12 units each. Each Study unit costs around $4200. The fee was to be paid per semester. International students can only do the course on a full-time basis. So you need to choose 4 units each semester. Therefore, it would cost roughly $168,000 per semester. There is also around $300 to be paid yearly for using college amenities like the library, internet and other miscellaneous services.
• For accommodation, a room for rent would cost around $400-500 per week, including all bills, which includes Internet as well. Eating if on a budget would cost $100-150 per week.

• The difficulty level of the course is decent. If you have not studied certain related subjects before, you might find it hard, but if you have certain familiarity with the course, you will be okay.
• The first semester was pretty much theory with practical aspects involving the assignments and projects that you are involved in.
• The course is core finance, which was a big positive for me. But a lack of practical aspects is there.
• There are 4 lectures and 4 tutorials scheduled in a week, which would typically be about 15 hours of teaching.
• I had about 15-20% of students from India, with a typical batch size of 40. The batch size also changes depending upon which subject you are choosing.

• The course fee for me was A$ 18,400, which can be reduced if you get a scholarship.
• The fee is charged semester-wise. In some cases, you might get an alternative payment method if you are struggling with your finances and your college approves of it. In that case, you might get a chance to pay the fee in installments or pay the entire fee a little later, but within the deadline provided by the college. This is not applicable to the first semester fee.
• The monthly costs would be about $180-300 on rent, about $50 on amenities like water, electricity, gas, and internet, and $100 on your groceries (depending on how you spend it). But the public transport is cheap, with 50 cents for a ride in a bus, train, or ferry.

I think the curriculum is really strong and highlights key components in which students will need going forward into our professional careers. Some of which I feel like could benefit from more content delivery in tutorials, however.

I was able to participate in my degree through HEX and this also included my SAS fees too. If it wasn't for this, I wouldn't have been able to attend university at all. QUT has also been accommodating to students through many scholarship programs on offer.

I think it provides broad knowledge on the topic.

Scholarships are available to students with high grades and fees are quite high for international students. You need to pay for every unit you study and paid at the beginning of every semester. I am doing 3 semesters for my first year so I need to pay money at the beginning of every semester. I am looking forward to a scholarship

It's good although the first few courses are very basic and a little too easy. For example, my Food and Nutrition unit has very little food and nutrition content and more general tips on being employable so far. Which isn't very interesting.

I deferred my fees to HEX, this process was made very easy and straightforward. There is another fee for each semester of study that you can also defer.

I believe that it is outdated and needs to be rethought I also believe that a wider variety of classes need to be on offer for those that do not wish to undertake the standard subjects. The curriculum does not give students an opportunity to explore their capabilities and creativity

The fees are government paid when you apply for HECS help loans which I believe is beneficial as it allowed people from all walks of life to gain a degree to improve their employability

It's great so far I really like all the freebies and lots of access to help and assistance when required I just started so it?s hard to say more since I am a first year but I've heard great things from other people.

Reasonable and tells how the government helps out when you're applying they strongly suggest to fill out a financial aid document.

The curriculum was alright, but it wasn't anything amazing. It did assist me in learning new concepts and technologies, as well as understanding how these things work and some of their applications in the world. Unfortunately, the major area that I'm working on now (IT Support) had minimal teaching. My knowledge of the curriculum may be outdated, but I wasn't taught about Microsoft Server, Microsoft Exchange, Powershell, SCCM, or Active Directory - all useful and crucial technologies used in workplaces all over the world.

The fee structure was, you were charged a flat amount per unit per semester. There is extreme transparency with the cost, and students have the ability to drop out of the particular unit before the unit cost is incurred. I never had to pay for any resources in order to take the course, but textbooks were recommended (and the ones I did acquire were certainly helpful).

I think the course curriculum is awesome. It's broad, easy to follow, fun and easy going. All the assessments are challenging in a good way. We learn different subjects so you aren't always bored or stuck on one thing.

3,055 for the course alone. $2,436 for textiles and resources. Quite expensive for a short study period.

The curriculum is very assignment based which gives us the opportunity to research and find information to ourselves. The tutors are very successful in clearing doubts and making sure the students absorb the required material.

The fee structure was very fair in comparison to other universities in Australia, and also with a medium priced living cost in Brisbane it's an ideal location to start on education.
