For those who are based in Adelaide, we will be offering a blended delivery mode that combines face-to-face with remote learning in as many courses as possible, taking into consideration social distancing and hygiene. All lectures will continue to be delivered online for the remainder of the year, with some exceptions.

Students will be advised in advance if there are course components that cannot be provided in remote mode and, wherever possible, offered alternative courses.
