Pilbara Kimberley University Centres

The Pilbara Kimberley University Centre (PKUC) is a not-for-profit education support service for current and aspiring students undertaking university education within the Pilbara and Kimberley region. We are a community organisation and facility focused on promoting the values of education and advocating in the best interest of all regional students and the region’s development. The PUC provides a unique learning environment through which students gain access to educational support, application and enrollment assistance, guidance on courses and pathways, connections with local industry, comfortable and modern facilities to study and connect with other students, as well as administrative and student support. The PUC works alongside councils, local businesses and industry to bring University opportunities to local Pilbara communities. Tertiary education and Pilbara living do not need to be mutually exclusive. Studying with the PUC At the PUC we support the delivery of a range of university programs in partnership with CQUniversity and Curtin University. Our courses are delivered in in an online distant mode or a mixed-mode which blends online curriculum, resources and activities together with face-to-face tutorials and workshops provided at one of PUC’s Hubs. Where relevant, practical placements are also organised by PUC for students within local organisations and industry. With the PUC you can expand your networks..socially, academically and professionally. Grow and improve your career with PUC. University opens doors. In fact, there are many careers you cannot pursue without a university degree. While you may be able to work in that field, your career trajectory may be limited by not attending university and achieving a degree. For example, if you wish to study in the mental health sector, you can do this without a degree. But, if you wish to become a psychologist within the sector, you will need certification, which requires a university degree.
