Real World Faculty
Bond’s
unbeatable edge is its genuine commitment to
the individual. Studying in small classes,
you’ll have one-on-one access to some of
world's leading academics who mentor each
student through an open door policy.
Bond's professors, lecturers and guest speakers are
internationally renowned for their unique
blend of high-level academic qualifications
and real-life practical experience
consulting to major corporations worldwide.
We also have a number of visiting professors
from all over the world who bring an
international perspective to our teaching.
Time Required to Complete
your Degree
As a year round school, most Graduate Programs at
Bond are completed in 3 semesters (1 year).
The Juris Doctor (JD) and Psychology programs require 6
semesters (2 years).
Semester Dates
Bond has 3 intakes per year
- September, January and May. To see the
exact dates, refer to
About Bond | Semester
Dates.
Student & Work Visa
As when traveling to many
countries, you need to seek
permission from that country to stay for
extended periods of time. Accordingly, you
will require a student visa to study at Bond. A
Student Visa may only be applied for once
you are accepted to study at Bond University
and you have received your Confirmation of
Enrollment. Don't sweat it though. We
guide you through this process and make it
pain free. It can take up to 6 weeks (but is
often much shorter) to get your Visa so
getting your application
to us ASAP means we can get everything done
in time.
Your student visa also
permits you to work in Australia once you
have commenced your program at Bond. The
work visa allows you to work up to 20 hours
per week. Dependents
of students who have commenced a Masters or
PhD level program are able to work unlimited
hours.
Using your Bond degree
IN NORTH AMERICA
For the USA, there is an arrangement
between the Australian Government and the US
Government for reciprocal degree
recognition. This means a USA degree can be
used in Australia, and an Australian
university degree can be used in the USA.
This arrangement was further reinforced by
its inclusion in the 2004 Free Trade
Agreement between Australia and the USA.
For specialist industries, each state in the
USA has it's own requirements and it is
worth investigating with the governing body
of your specialist profession to learn the
additional requirements for foreign degrees.
Accounting
Australia has signed a mutual recognition
agreement (MRA) with the United States in
regard to accounting degrees. This agreement
allows those who graduate with an accounting
degree from Australia and complete the CPA
program, to apply for employment in 39 US
states without any additional requirements.
Law - USA
Graduates with an Australian law
qualification who have been admitted to
practice in Australia may be eligible to sit
for the bar examinations and obtain
admission in some American states. Admission
in these states is controlled by local state
bar associations and the state supreme
courts. Information about admission
requirements for foreign law degrees is
available through the American Bar
Association website at
www.abanet.org.
Most foreign educated
lawyers seek admission in
California or
New York
and then do an inter-state transfer (if they
wish to practice in another state).
Bond is already an approved Law Program
for the New York State Bar. The rules in
these jurisdictions should be examined
carefully to determine whether you satisfy
the requirements. You should review these
regularly as they are subject to change. The
Bond Law School has no control over
admission rules.
Law - Canada
To practice law in Canada, you will need to
complete a Canadian bar admissions course.
To be eligible for this course
in any of the common law provinces
(excluding Quebec), you will need a
Certificate of Qualification from the
National Accreditation Committee (the ‘NCA’)
of the Federation of Law Societies of
Canada. The certificate will state that you
have education and training equivalent to
that of a Canadian law graduate. Application
is made
to the
NCA at the end of your degree at Bond. The
NCA will review your record and prescribe a
number of examinations in Canadian law. There are two ways of taking these examinations. 1. You
may seek admission to a Canadian law school
for this purpose. 2. You may take ‘challenge
exams’ set by the NCA.
Medicine
The Bond University Medical
Program has been accredited by the
Australian Medical Council. This is a
rigorous assessment process, and only
medical programs which meet or exceed
the required standards are approved. It
means graduates are eligible for
registration as a medical practitioner in
any State or Territory of Australia. This
does not extend a graduate automatic
reciprocity of recognition of their
qualification in the USA. Graduates
should ascertain what the respective
registration requirements are.
Bond alumni are presently
employed in high profile companies in many countries around the world.
Some of the companies that seek Bond
students are:
Goldman Sachs
- Virgin Group - KPMG - Accenture - Warner Brothers
- Village Roadshow - HP Compaq - Sun
Micro Systems
- Oracle & Cisco Systems -
Credit Suisse First Boston
- PriceWaterhouseCoopers - ANET/Access
