Language and
Learning Support |
| Students in our University Entry Programs (Foundation, University
Diploma and Bridging) also have access to language and learning advisers
to help improve their language and academic skills. International College students
can also access QUT’s support services across all campuses. |
 |
Dedicated Staff |
| QUT International College's dedicated teaching and administrative staff are highly qualified with a great deal of experience in teaching and assisting international students. Many of our staff have lived and worked overseas and some speak second languages. |
 |
Welfare Support |
| QUT recognises that international students may face additional
challenges to those that domestic university students have to cope with. In
addition to making choices about their studies they must learn to live in
a different culture and society, often far from family and friends.
To help with the adjustment, Helen Jones, Student Welfare Adviser, provides
counselling and support to QUT International College students through
the provision of organised workshops and activities. Helen also advises
students on an individual basis. Helen welcomes
visits from students whether for specific help or just for a chat.
