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).
