About Curtin University Scholarship

Curtin University (previously named the Curtin University of Technology and Western Australian Institute of Technology) is an Australian state-owned research university located in Bentley, Perth, Western Australia. It is christened after John Curtin, Prime Minister of Australia from 1941 to 1945, and is the biggest university in Western Australia, with 57,784 scholars in 2019.

Curtin was bestowed university standing after the statute was passed by the Parliament of Western Australia in 1986. Since then, the institution has extended its presence and has campuses in Malaysia, Singapore, Dubai, and Mauritius, and has affiliations with 90 exchange universities in 20 nations. The university is comprised of five main faculties with more than 95 specialist centers. It ran a campus in Sydney from 2005 to 2016, but on 17 September 2015, the Curtin University Council reached a decision to shut down this campus by early 2017.

Curtin University was created as Australia’s premier university of technology and is an associate of the Australian Technology Network (ATN). Curtin University is active in research in a variety of academic and applied fields. It is the only Western Australian University to churn out a postgraduate beneficiary of the AINSE gold medal.
