Bridging Courses are short intensive courses designed for students who feel uncomfortable with their preparation for university study because they may not meet the assumed knowledge requirements. Bridging Courses only teach to an introductory level and may assist in narrowing the gap between school and university studies.  Subjects taught in Bridging Courses do not carry any credit-point value towards your degree.

Who should attend?

Students entering tertiary study in 2009 without the recommended knowledge in a particular area should consider doing a bridging course.  This may include students enrolling in courses such as engineering, business, nursing, architecture, health science and information technology.  These courses are available to all students, including students not intending to study at UTS.

Bridging courses that are available:

• Bridging Physics
• Bridging Chemistry
• Bridging Mathematics (2 Unit)
• Bridging Mathematics Ext 1
• Bridging Mathematics for Nursing Students
• Bridging Mathematics Education Students

Where are they taught?

All Bridging Courses will be held at UTS City Campus (Broadway), except for Mathematics for Education students, which is run at UTS Kuring-Gai Campus. More details will be provided once you have enrolled.

How do I enrol?
