The university did not pick a great year for a new international student strategy (CMM February 24) – but it appears to have a plan for new markets

Uni Newcastle announces a “unique joint teaching programme” in business and commerce with BINUS U in Jakarta.  Students in Jakarta will complete a UoN degree there or transfer to the university’s Singapore or Newcastle campuses.

This seems similar to the approach announced last year, with an MOU between UoN and Chulabhorn Royal Academy in Thailand. The parties propose four-year medical innovation and engineering degrees, taught 18-months in Thailand, followed by two years at Newcastle (as in the city) and a final six months back at Chulabhorn RA (CMM July 17 2019.)
