Most of Australian universities are public universities predominantly funded by a national or sub-national government. Their quality and reputation have been internationally recognized and they provide highly regarded qualifications to the students. Such quality and reputation have been successfully maintained by the government’s management to provide a proven quality education and meet the diverse needs of students from around the world.

Australian universities offer a wide range of programs and mostly they are specialized in certain areas of study. Also, the university programs are designed to be linked to TAFE or College courses or under a credit recognition agreement with them so that students may transfer into a university after completing a diploma in a TAFE/College with their credits recognized by the university.
