Deakin University - Geelong was established in the 1970s as one of the new generation of Australian universities. Named after Alfred Deakin, Australia's second Prime Minister, Deakin combines a university's traditional focus on excellent teaching and research with a desire to seek new ways of developing and delivering courses. Deakin University - Geelong has won several awards for its teaching and learning excellence - testament to its excellent facilities, flexible learning options and courses which are informed by industry professionals.
From the outset, Deakin University - Geelong performed a dual role: as a regional university offering a broad range of courses for rural and regional students, and as a specialist provider of high-quality distance education. In addition to traditional on-campus teaching, Deakin pioneered innovative off-campus studies. By 1978, off-campus study materials were supplemented by a first-class library system that ensured books and resources were delivered to students within 48 hours of their request. Academic staff also toured regional areas to conduct regular tutorial and study sessions with off-campus students.
Deakin University - Geelong quickly established an impressive reputation for innovative and flexible delivery of off-campus teaching. By the new millennium online teaching and learning was well entrenched into Deakin's units and courses. Since 2004, all commencing undergraduate students have been required to complete at least one unit, wholly online. Deakin University - Geelong is recognised as an early leader in disability resources for tertiary students. In 1980 it was the first university in Australia to appoint a dedicated disability resources officer, and two years later, opened a Disability Resources Centre that ensured students with disabilities had access to support, resources and representation. In 1986, foundations were laid for the Institute of Koorie Education with two programs offered through Deakin: the Victorian-based Koorie Teacher Education Program and a final year program for Batchelor College (NT) graduates. The Institute was formally proclaimed in 1991 with programs structured around off-campus community-based delivery and supported by on-campus intensive study blocks.
Deakin University - Geelong has won the prestigious Australian University of the Year award twice and was also commended with six Citations for Outstanding Contributions to Student Learning at the 2009 Australian Learning and Teaching Council Awards. In 2005, Deakin University - Geelong's Library was nationally acknowledged for the outstanding provision of off-campus services in the Australian Awards for University Teaching. Recognised as Australia's fastest growing research institution, Deakin has attracted a growing pool of international staff and students that is supported by world-class facilities and infrastructure.
