Curtin University (previously as Curtin University of Technology and Western Australian Institute of Technology) is an Australian public research university based in Bentley, Perth, Western Australia. It is named after John Curtin, Prime Minister of Australia from 1941 to 1945, and is the largest university in Western Australia, with 58,607 students in 2022. [19]

Contents

WAIT was established in 1966. Curtin was conferred university status after legislation was passed by the Parliament of Western Australia in 1986. Since then, the university has expanded its presence and has campuses in Singapore, Malaysia, Dubai and Mauritius, and has ties with 90 exchange universities in 20 countries. [20] The university comprises five main faculties with over 95 specialists centres. It had a campus in Sydney from 2005 to 2016. [21]

Curtin University is a member of the Australian Technology Network. Curtin University is active in research in a range of academic and practical fields. [22] Curtin is the only Western Australian university whose students have won the Australian Institute of Nuclear Science and Engineering's Postgraduate Student Gold Medal as at 2020. [23]

History

Curtin University was founded in 1966 as the Western Australian Institute of Technology. [24] The four people who drove its establishment were Lesley Phillips, who was Superintendent of Technical Education from 1943 to 1948; George Hayman, [lower-alpha 1] who held the same position from 1948 [25] until 1962; [26] T.L. Robertson, Director of Education; and Haydn Williams, Director of Technical Education. [25]

Its nucleus comprised the tertiary programs of the Perth Technical College, which opened in 1900. [27] The university's Bentley campus was selected in 1962, officially opened in 1966, and the first students enrolled in 1967.[ citation needed ] Haydn Williams was the first director of WAIT. [25]

In 1969, three more institutions were merged with WAIT: the Kalgoorlie School of Mines (opened in 1902), the Muresk Agricultural College (opened in 1926), and the Schools of Physiotherapy and Occupational Therapy (in operation since the 1950s at Shenton Park). [28] Between 1966 and 1976 WAIT experienced an expansion from 2,000 to 10,000 students. [29]

In December 1986 WAIT was made a university, under provisions of the WA Institute of Technology Amendment Act 1986. [30] Curtin University took its name from the former Prime Minister of Australia, John Curtin. In 1987, Curtin University of Technology became Western Australia's third university and Australia's first university of technology.[ citation needed ]

In 1993, Curtin founded a graduate business school in St Georges Terrace. It was moved to Murray Street in 2002, where it remains today. The school was developed on the foundation of Curtin's existing Master of Business Administration program. [31]

In 2005, Curtin and Murdoch University were engaged in a feasibility study into the possibility of a merger. [32] However, on 7 November 2005, both institutions announced that a merger would not be undertaken. [33] In 2008, Curtin opened a campus in Singapore, its second offshore presence. [31] In 2009, Curtin became the first university in the Australian Technology Network to be listed on the Academic Ranking of World Universities of research universities. [34]

In 2010, Curtin dropped the "of Technology" suffix, from then operating as "Curtin University".[ citation needed ]

Perth and regional WA

The main Curtin University campus is located in Bentley, Western Australia, about 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) south-east of the Perth central business district. [35] Curtin has multiple smaller off-site campuses within the Perth metropolitan area. The Graduate School of Business building is located in the Perth central business district in the renovated former Government Printing Office, and the law school is located on Murray Street in the old Public Health Department and Chief Secretary's building, a listed building on the State Register of Heritage Places. In 2016, Curtin entered into an agreement with the National Trust of Australia (WA) to use the restored Old Perth Boys' School at 139 St Georges Terrace for community and industry engagement. In 2018, Curtin University renovated the original Perth Technical College building at 137 St Georges Terrace to create meeting rooms, and learning spaces for professional development and postgraduate courses. [36]

Exploration Geophysics and Petroleum Engineering are located at the co-location research facilities of the Australian Resources Research Centre (ARRC) [37] which also houses offices of CSIRO Earth Science and Resource Engineering [38] and National Measurement Institute. [39] The ARRC is located in the Technology Park Bentley, adjacent to the main Bentley campus. Some university staff, researchers and students on practicum work in other locations such as the Oral Health Centre of WA (OHCWA) in Nedlands [40] and at Royal Perth Hospital, amongst other organisations.

Curtin has two of its own bus stations, which is connected to the Transperth public transport network. The station is also linked to the Mandurah railway line's Canning Bridge Station by a shuttle bus service. The university also has its own internal bus network trialling autonomous buses on campus.[ citation needed ]

Curtin has campuses outside Perth, the largest being the Western Australian School of Mines at Kalgoorlie, and a number of micro-campuses in locations such as Esperance, Margaret River, and Geraldton. Nursing is the only course offered in Geraldton.[ when? ] The Muresk Institute at Northam left Curtin in 2012.[ citation needed ]

Dubai campus

In April 2017 Curtin University established its newest campus in Dubai at Dubai International Academic City. [41] Australian Ambassador to the UAE HE Arthur Spyrou officially opened the campus on 10 September 2017. [42] Curtin University Dubai courses use the same structure and unit curriculum as those offered at the Bentley campus. Curtin University Dubai is accredited by the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA).[ citation needed ] The academic qualifications granted by Curtin University is certified by KHDA and is recognised in the Emirate of Dubai by all public and private entities.[ citation needed ]

Malaysia campus

The campus in Miri, Sarawak, Malaysia is Curtin's largest international campus. Curtin's operations in Miri began in February 1999. In 2002, a purpose-built campus was opened as Curtin's first offshore campus and the first foreign university campus in East Malaysia. It has around 4,000 students from over 45 countries, and academics from more than 15 countries. [43] Curtin Malaysia is the only approved CISCO Networking University in Miri and Brunei. [44]

Singapore campus

Curtin University opened a Singapore-based campus on 23 November 2008. [45] [46] Curtin Singapore courses use the same structure and unit curriculum as those offered at the Bentley campus.[ citation needed ]

Mauritius campus

Curtin University opened its fourth international campus in Mauritius on 3 May 2018 on the campus of Charles Telfair Institute in Moka south of Port Louis. [47] [48]

Former Sydney campus (2005–2016)

Curtin University Sydney (Curtin Sydney) was established on 20 June 2005. The first campus was located in The Rocks area. It was later relocated to the suburb of Chippendale where it occupied the historical Berlei Building. The operation of Curtin Sydney was contracted out to private tertiary education provider Navitas Group. It offered diploma, undergraduate and postgraduate courses to international students. In 2014 Curtin Sydney was involved in a cash-for-results scandal where students since 2012 had paid MyMaster, a Sydney company, up to $1,000 each to write essays and assignments for them, as well as sit online tests. [49] In 2015, Curtin announced the closure of Curtin Sydney from early 2017. [21]

Organisation and facilities

Faculties

From 2007, the university's teaching and research was divided into five faculties (previously known as divisions), which each include a number of schools. [50] These schools were consolidated in 2020 during a period of staff cuts. [51] These are:

Libraries

The main library building is the TL Robertson Library, located on the Bentley campus. [52] It opened in 1972. After the building was extended in the 1990s, the university began a major refurbishment in 2021, due for completion in 2023. [53] Also located on the Bentley campus is the John Curtin Prime Ministerial Library, holding a large collection of papers relating to John Curtin as well as other special collections including the papers of political figures John Dawkins, Geoff Gallop, Hazel Hawke, and Carmen Lawrence, and Curtin academics Mike Daube (tobacco control) and Jules Black (sexology). [54]

The John Curtin Gallery (JCG) is located on the Bentley campus, in building 200A. [55] It has a focus on contemporary art, learning and research. [56]

Hayman Theatre

The Hayman Theatre was established in 1973 as Hayman Hall, for the use of theatre arts students. [57] The Hall's name derives from George Hayman, [lower-alpha 1] who played a major part in establishing WAIT in 1967. [58] The theatre study company Theatreground as well as the Western Australian Theatre Company used the space. It was refurbished in 1977, creating the Theatre Upstairs above the main stage. After the Bentley Campus was expanded, in 2017 Hayman Theatre was relocated to Building 302. [57]

Academic profile

The university is one of the partners in the Western Australian Pregnancy Cohort (Raine) Study, one of the largest cohorts of pregnancy, childhood, adolescence and early adulthood to be carried out anywhere in the world. [59]

Controversies

Curtin has become active in research and partnerships overseas, particularly in mainland China, and has received funding from major Chinese companies such as Tencent. [98] It is involved in a number of business, management, and research projects, particularly in supercomputing, where the university participates in a tri-continental array with nodes in Perth, Beijing, and Edinburgh. [99] The Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao visited the Woodside-funded hydrocarbon research facility during his visit to Australia in 2005. [100] Funding from major Chinese companies connected to the state have led to concerns that Curtin University has limited academic freedom on certain topics. [98]

In 2020, a roof at Curtin University collapsed, killing a 23-year-old construction worker after he fell more than 20 m (66 ft), and leaving two other construction workers injured. [101] [102]

In 2023, a 27 year old engineering student at Curtin University committed suicide on campus with a handgun. [103]
