The IUOC prepares Indigenous Australian students with the academic skills and understandings required to engage with the knowledges and processes of university degree studies. The course is designed to give students every opportunity to graduate after one semester of study, however, the course more normally takes two semesters to complete. The course is designed around the following four concepts. 1) Research and Learning, 2) University Reading, 3) University Writing, and 4) Independent Study. Completion of this course provides student with a standard entry into most social science and humanities degree programs. Entry into other university programs may require additional extension studies and processes of negotiation.
This course replaces an existing course of the same name (former course code C04).

The units Learning and Context , Power and Language, Writing as Design each have two levels of performance indicators. Achieving the first level indicators but not the second allows the student to enrol in the second of the coupled (but not linked) units. The student must then pass at the higher level in their second enrolment or record a fail and be required to repeat the unit at the second level.
Students can graduate in one semester of study if they achieve the higher level indicators in Learning and Context1 , Power and Language1, Writing as Design1, and pass Independent Study Unit 1 (or ABB1114 Thinking Mathematically should this unit of study be required in its place)
Students who graduate at the end of one semester will be exempted from ABB1131, ABB1132, ABB1133, ABB1134.
