Accelerated degrees
Professional master’s programs
At Bond, you can complete your degree and start your career sooner than at a traditional university. Our teaching calendar includes three semesters per year instead of the usual two, allowing you to enter the workforce quicker than at other universities.

Dr Donna Sellers HEAD OF PROGRAM, BIOMEDICAL SCIENCE. “Classes within Bond’s biomedical science programs are taught by expert professors and academics, as well as practising clinicians from a variety of health backgrounds, including research, medicine, surgery, and allied health. It’s a very personalised environment, and there are lots of opportunities for students to speak with educators about their own careers and the paths they took to get there. “Unlike larger universities, we also have small class sizes, so we get to know our students really well, and they get to know us in turn. Each student’s learning is important to us.”
Entrepreneurship and the Transformer program At Bond, we focus on developing adaptive, tech-savvy and futurefocused graduates with a strong entrepreneurial streak. Bond also offers a free co-curricular program called Transformer, which brings students together from all disciplines to collaborate on projects and bring big business ideas to life. Working in teams, Transformer participants have access to industry experts, mentors, workshops and a 24/7 co-working space.
Neil Josen Delos Reyes PHILIPPINES, MASTER OF SCIENCE BY RESEARCH. “My advice for prospective students is to choose the university that ticks most, if not all, of your boxes. For me, I loved the idea of Bond’s small class sizes and accelerated courses. I wanted to pursue my tertiary education quickly without sacrificing any of the opportunities that could help me land a job after graduation, and Bond has really enabled me to do that.”
Live in a city of innovation and opportunity The Gold Coast has quickly established itself as a hub for entrepreneurship and innovation, leading the way and growing constantly. More people on the Gold Coast own and run their own businesses than any other city in Australia, with the region attracting some of the world’s best and brightest minds.
A diverse industry landscape
Entrepreneurship opportunities
The Gold Coast offers a multifaceted and broad business landscape with strong employment opportunities across many sectors. Bond’s dedicated Career Development Centre provides access to industry connections that will help you make the most of our growing professional opportunities.
There are numerous opportunities for you to develop your entrepreneurship skills and nurture your ideas, both right here at Bond, and on the Gold Coast. Participate in the University’s Transformer program, major in Entrepreneurship and Innovation, and participate in networking opportunities, competitions and initiatives to broaden your entrepreneurial skill set.
A global community Bond students hail from more than 90 countries around the world. The city is welcoming and diverse, with almost one in three residents having been born overseas. At Bond, you will join students from all corners of the globe and gain an international perspective on study and work.
Be eligible for a post-study work visa While it is Australia’s sixth largest city, the Gold Coast is classified as a regional city for migration purposes. This means that you may be eligible for an extended, three-year post-study work visa after graduation if you complete a bachelor’s degree, or a four-year post-study work visa if you complete a master’s by coursework.
Be a standout graduate What you do at university has never been more important in preparing you to succeed in your career. In an increasingly competitive job market, it’s no longer about what you learn in the classroom – enhancing your employability is an essential part of the university experience.
Unmatched access to opportunities
Industry placements

Professor Alan Patching PROJECT DIRECTOR OF SYDNEY OLYMPIC STADIUM. DIRECTOR OF INDUSTRY ENGAGEMENT. “It’s hard to imagine a better time to pursue a career in the construction, property and planning fields. The market is currently very strong, and with the Brisbane Olympics just ten years away, I strongly suspect these sectors will continue with vigour, and that will translate to ongoing opportunity for employment and rewarding careers. Bond’s programs are delivered by experienced academics, many with substantial practical experience, which means students can be assured of cutting-edge information based on the very latest research and industry findings.”

Caio Christiansen BRAZIL, MEDICAL PROGRAM VIA BACHELOR OF BIOMEDICAL SCIENCE PATHWAY. “I initially came to the Gold Coast on exchange as I was keen to try something different. I’m so glad I came here, as it offers all I could have asked for – sun, surf and nature. During this time, I visited the beautiful Bond campus, which is how I decided I wanted to come back and pursue my tertiary studies at Bond. “I first started at Bond University College with the Diploma of Health Sciences. I then continued into the Bachelor of Biomedical Science, which I really enjoyed. All the practical sessions and knowledge I developed during biomedical science prepared me to begin my Medical Program journey. This pathway was seamless and I am now less than two years away from becoming a doctor.”
