Curtin Uni-Ready

Curtin University Enabling Course

The UniReady primary focus is on developing transferable skills that are required to succeed at university. Students study two core compulsory units, and then two optional units chosen from a selection of four.

The structure is outlined below:
Core Units:
– Fundamentals of Academic Writing
– Foundations of Communication

Optional Units (2 must be chosen):
– Introduction to Humanities
– Introduction to Commerce
– Introduction to Health Science
– Applying Mathematics

Please note, optional units will be selected based on the university courses students have expressed an
interest in studying at Curtin University. These decision will be based on the cohort as a whole and their
needs. If upon selection of optional units, students will be advised of these and an opportunity to
withdraw if this does not suit your pathway.

Successful completion of UniReady (which consists of passing all four units) and gives the students a
‘notional’ ATAR score. As the score is not calculated by TISC it is not an ATAR score as such; rather it
is recognised by Curtin as meeting the minimum entry requirements. Once the student has passed all
four units, they can have direct entry into a number of courses. Please refer to the Uniready website for
an updated list – https://www.curtin.edu.au/uniready.

Please note that units have a final examination except for Foundations of Communication.
