Lumen Wheatbelt Regional University Centre

Wheatbelt Regional University Centre

What is a Regional University Centre?

Regional University Centres (RUCs) help students in regional and remote areas access
higher education without having to leave their community. They provide in person
student support and campus-style facilities for students who study online.

The Wheatbelt Regional University Model

The Wheatbelt region is unique in that there is not one central location in which one RUC
can be established that provides equitable access to all students across the region.

The Wheatbelt model is an overarching virtual campus with co-working study hub spaces to support diversity, equity of access and participation of students with improved student outcomes.  Four study hubs have been planned for Narrogin, Wongan Hills, Merredin and York.  

Each hub will have dedicated study areas with computers and printer, access to meeting rooms and kitchenette facilities.  Student Support Officers are employed to provide in person support.

What are the FREE services the Wheatbelt Regional University offers?

  • Support from a local Student Services Officer
  • Access to high speed internet
  • Access to a meeting room
  • Access to computers and printing
  • Assistance to source student placement positions

ANYONE from ANY Australian University or TAFE studying under graduate and post graduate courses or Diploma and Advanced Diploma courses are eligible to access these free services.
