SLIIT International at Nawam Mawatha, Colombo Offers Curtin University Full Degrees in Computing and Engineering
View(s):SLIIT will make history with the launch of their new ‘SLIIT International Campus’ at Nawam Mawatha, Colombo during the first quarter of 2021.
The new state-of-the-art campus sits on a sprawling 42,000 square feet site, whose design and facilities would match those of its international partners.
This is a significant step in the Institute’s plans to expand high-quality higher education opportunities in Sri Lanka. Commencing in March 2021, SLIIT International will offer Curtin University full degrees in Computing and Engineering. Students may choose to complete the degrees in Sri Lanka or transfer to Curtin University in Australia after one or two years of study in Sri Lanka.
This arrangement is timely in view of the inability of our students to travel abroad for higher education due to the pandemic. Students who enrol for Curtin University degrees at SLIIT International will have the option of transferring to a Curtin campus in Australia, if they desire, as soon as the situation improves, and travel becomes feasible.
While studying part of the degree in Colombo and transferring to Curtin University in Australia to complete might be an attractive proposition, students completing their studies in Sri Lanka would have the advantage of gaining the same degree at a competitive fee.
