Graduate Attributes

Curtin is committed to producing graduates who demonstrate the Graduate Attributes. Students are presented with appropriate learning, teaching, and assessment experiences to enable them to develop and demonstrate the Curtin Graduate Attributes. The Curtin Graduate Attributes are explicitly communicated to staff and students in all course and unit documentation.

Curtin graduates demonstrate evidence, as appropriate to their disciplines, that they can:

  1. DisciplineKnowledge  Apply discipline knowledge, principles and concepts;
  2. ThinkCritically  Think critically, creatively and reflectively;
  3. AccessInfo  Access, evaluate and synthesise information;
  4. Communicate  Communicate effectively;
  5. Technology  Use technologies appropriately;
  6. LifelongLearning  Utilise lifelong learning skills;
  7. InternationalPerspectives  Recognise and apply international perspectives;
  8. CulturalAwareness  Demonstrate intercultural awareness and understanding; and
  9. ProfessionalSkills  Apply professional skills.

In addition, graduates of research degrees demonstrate the ability to create knowledge through research.

Teaching, learning and assessment of the Curtin Graduate Attributes is assured through the normal course approval and review processes, and the monitoring of student learning experiences through student evaluation mechanisms.
