Returning to study after a gap year… or two.. or more… can be a little confusing. Once you’ve left high school, it doesn’t take long before you start to wonder how you handled the day-to-day blur of classes and teachers. It also makes you wonder if you can do that all again.
The good news is, you don’t have to. At university, and especially at Flinders, classes are different, study patterns are different, and teachers are very different from the ones you may remember.
Study at university gives you the chance to really take control of your education. Flinders’ lecturers are experts in their fields, and many are still working at a high level within their respective industries.
You’ll have the opportunity to tap into industry-linked, exceptional skills and knowledge, that will help you get to exactly where you want to go, whether it’s building on your existing career or changing directions completely.
“Flinders’ academics had a personalised approach to working with students, and their passion for teaching was infectious – this was pivotal to my career success.”
Tom Leverenz
Bachelor of Education
Flinders’ personalised approach to teaching makes a difference, particularly if you’re fitting in your studies around outside commitments. Our ratio of students to teachers is ranked as the best in South Australia,* which means you’ll get the help you need when you need it, and you’ll be able to better balance your uni/work/family life.
Stepping into university is not like stepping back into high school. It’s studying with lecturers who are as passionate about their fields as you are. Being taught by people who not only want to see you graduate, but want to see you thrive.
Many of Flinders’ alumni continue to stay in touch with their lecturers long after graduation. They appreciate the dedication and expertise of Flinders’ teaching staff. If you’re preparing to return to study at university, Flinders’ exceptional teaching will help you achieve your goals and step into your future.
