Collaborative Double Degree

Definition overview

1 Definition

An arrangement with an overseas educational institution to offer a sequence of study consisting of UniSQ's program and the partner's program, which are independent yet complementary.

There is usually formal mutual Credit recognition which allows Students to sequentially or concurrently study Courses in their home institution's program and UniSQ Courses.

After successful completion of the required Courses with both institutions, the Student may be eligible for an Award from the home institution and an Award from UniSQ.

A collaborative double degree is conferred under a legally binding agreement and is typically unilateral, where only Students from the partner institution benefit from the arrangement.
