Whether you are based in Australia or internationally, if you are interested in undertaking a Foundation program or undergraduate university studies, then you have come to the right place.
We are a tertiary college offering a direct pathway to a university degree. With flexible entry criteria, you can complete a SIBT diploma and then directly progress into your second-year studies of a university bachelor degree.
We have been in operation since 1997 and are part of the global Navitas Group (an internationally recognised education provider). We work together with other partner universities and ease the transition from high school to university level studies. We also provide opportunities for those that have started a career but are looking to upskill or follow a new career path.
We are more than just an education institution. We offer a personalised academic environment and a range of support services designed to help our students prepare for success. Once you graduate with a diploma, you can select from a variety of university options to further your studies.
Here is more on what we offer:
You can choose to study our foundation program or a SIBT diploma program as part of your university undergraduate studies.
Our Foundation program is approved by the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency (TEQSA) and our diploma programs are accredited by TEQSA (see teqsa.gov.au/national-register).
The Federal government's Quality Indicators for Learning and Teaching (QILT) website helps you compare the study experience and employment outcomes from Australian Higher Education Providers.
SIBT is located at the Sydney City Campus, 255 Elizabeth Street, Sydney. Visit the contact us page for more information about our location and how to get in touch.
Our student population is made up of a diverse range of students from both Australia and all over the world. In 2021, there were approximately 375 students studying a Diploma or Foundation program at SIBT.
From your first day, you will be studying on the same campus as Western Sydney University students so you will make friends from both SIBT and your future program at Western.
There are 3 intakes per year: March, July or October.
