Deakin policies and other important information

You have access to online reference material concerning Deakin University.

Visit the following website:

www.deakin.edu.au/TheDeakinGuide

The Guide provides a range of information about the University. There are five sections:

Legislation Deakin University Act 1974 and University Statutes and Regulations
Policies, procedures and rules Complete list of Deakin University policies, procedures, and rules
Plans, guidelines and other information Plans, reports, handbooks, fees schedules, calendars, manuals and other University documents

Each section of The Guide has its own search function, but if you are unsure of where the information you might need may be, the search button on the left of each screen will search the entire Guide.

University staff and students can bookmark information they often need to refer to. Clicking the 'Add to Favourites' button at the top left corner of a document creates a link to it via 'Your Guide Bookmarks', located at the left of screen. This link can then be accessed directly from wherever in The Guide you are.

Students may use the information on The Guide to manage issues related to them as a Deakin University student. To help you get started, the following is a list of policies that have relevance to you as an enrolled student:

The student handbooks (separate editions for undergraduate and postgraduate) are another source of useful information which can be found on the website at:

www.deakin.edu.au/handbook
