University can be a challenge, which is why we’ve designed a course that offers you a supported learning environment and a guaranteed pathway into Deakin's Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Criminology. The Associate Degree of Arts teaches you the learning skills you need to be successful at university, including communication, digital literacy, critical thinking and teamwork skills.

From day one you'll be a part of the Deakin community. From your first trimester, you will complete units from your target degree (depending on which stream you choose) to ensure you're ready to transition into your bachelor degree.
