QIBT is a modern and dynamic educational institution
providing high quality courses in an environment that
encourages students to achieve excellence in their
studies. Quality teaching, outstanding facilities and
academic and welfare support services are central to
QIBT's educational philosophy. All staff are fully
qualified and Diploma courses are taught by Griffith
University lecturers. All are committed to helping QIBT
students achieve academic success.
QIBT provides courses in the areas of business/commerce,
computer science/information technology, design studies,
and hotel management. These courses are offered in
association with Griffith University, and are recognised
by many other well known Universities throughout Australia
for the purpose of entry with advanced standing.
Study on a university campus
QIBT is located on Griffith University's Mt Gravatt
campus. Students are welcomed as part of the university
community, and enjoy full access to all university
facilities and services including the libraries, computer
laboratories, sports amenities, on-campus accommodation
and employment service.
University lecturers and curriculum
The content and delivery of QIBT programs is of the
highest quality. Diploma programs consist of first year
courses derived from Griffith University degree programs,
and are delivered and moderated by some of Griffith
University's finest lecturers. The University's high
standards are maintained at all times.
Small lecture and tutorial groups
QIBT promotes a personalized and supportive
educational philosophy that encourages students to reach
their maximum academic potential. Lectures contain an
average of only thirty students and are complimented by
small group tutorials and workshops. Lecturers are also
available for private consultation after class.
Longer teaching sessions
In keeping with its supportive approach, QIBT provides
more teaching hours per course. Instead of the traditional
three hour teaching block, QIBT conducts its classes in
four hour sessions. This extra academic contact allows
students to fully develop their knowledge and
understanding of each course.
Extra study support
Academic Skills Advisors are available to assist
students who require additional academic support during
their program of study at QIBT. For international students
requiring English and study skills support, an English for
Academic Studies program is also provided. Attendance is
free of charge.
Three semester fast track system
The scheduling of three semesters per year is another
example of QIBT's innovative educational approach. QIBT
students are able to fast track their studies and enter
second year university ahead of other students in the
traditional two semester system. Intakes occur in
February, June and October each year.
Flexible study options
Most QIBT programs are two semesters in duration
however students may extend their studies over three
semesters if they wish to reduce their academic load.
Part-time study is available to Australian students.
Entry to second year university
QIBT Diploma programs are based on the first year of
Griffith University degree programs. Upon successful
completion of a QIBT Diploma students may transfer to the
second year of Griffith University's related degree with a
full year's credit.
