Curtin Mauritius is the Mauritian campus of Curtin University, a public university in Australia.[4] It offers undergraduate and postgraduate degree programs in healthcare, information technology, commerce, design and communications.[5][6] Curtin University is named after John Curtin, a prominent Prime Minister of Australia during World War II from 1941 to 1945, and is the largest university in the state of Western Australia with 58,607 students globally in 2022.[7][8] It is the only Australian university campus in Africa and was formally opened on 3 May 2018 by Pravind Jugnauth, the prime minister of Mauritius.[7][9][10]

Curtin has a partnership with the Toulouse Business School with which it offers dual degree programs with integrated overseas study at Toulouse (France) or Barcelona (Spain).[11] It also offers foundational programs that provide entry into degree programs with credit.[12] Curtin Mauritius is operated in partnership with Charles Telfair Education, which also offers vocational education programs through TAFE Western Australia that can also be used as a pathway into the undergraduate studies.[13]

In Australia, the university is known for having high employer satisfaction rates.[14][15][16] According to the 2022 Employer Satisfaction Survey published by the Australian Government's QILT, the university received the highest overall employer satisfaction (89.7%) among all universities in Australia.[17] The university also ranks within the top 200 universities according to the Quacquarelli Symonds and U.S. News university ranking publications,[18][19] while ranking somewhat lower on others.[20][21][22]
