Yes, Curtin Uni Singapore courses are often shorter than courses at the Curtin University Austrlia. This is because the Singapore campus follows a trimester system (3 intakes per year) rather than the traditional two-semester system. The break between semesters is also shorter.
Students can complete their Master's within 8 months to 2 years, and UG degrees between 16 months to 2 years.

Yes, a degree from Curtin Singapore holds same value as one from the Curtin University campus in Perth, Australia. Graduates earn a globally recognised degree at much more affordable cost with better access to the Singapore job market.
The Singapore campus offers a more urban and accelerated study experience to students (graduation within 8 months to 2 years).

Students are required to study 4 subjects per trimester at Holmes Australia. This applies to most courses. Exceptions are granted for special circumstances like medical conditions.
Students have the freedom to study any unit they want. However, during the 1st year, students study foundation units as these provide a platform to progress later in the course.
