Swinburne delivers brand campaign to spotlight experiences to career timeline, via A Time and Place

Swinburne University and A Time and Place have launched a campaign focused on real work experience and industry connections to fast-track students into meaningful careers.

The announcement:

ATime&Place and Swinburne University of Technology have launched a new brand campaign titled ‘On your way’, showcasing the university’s commitment to giving every student real work experience, real skills and real industry connections to help them get into meaningful work faster.

Says Chris Lewis, executive director, future students and marketing at Swinburne: “We’re putting a spotlight on what sets Swinburne apart: real experience, skills, and support, brought to life in a way that is grounded, confident, and through the eyes of our students. This campaign perfectly aligns with Swinburne’s role as the vehicle that gets students into the world of work.”

Charles Baylis, ECD, ATime&Place, says, “Category norms for higher education are to promise students undefined futures in an abstracted way. We’re proud to be working with a university with its feet firmly planted in reality and create work that positions it as a real solution to students with a growing anxiety about an uncertain future.”

Research shows that a lot of young people are seeing university as prolonging their path into a meaningful career, but Swinburne’s guarantee of industry experience makes it a fast-track into work.

The campaign also reflects Swinburne’s vision of bringing people and technology together to build a better world, incorporating AI-driven insights with the creative vision to create a tech-infused campaign that speaks directly to the audience.

This is the first brand work for Swinburne University of Technology by new independent agency ATime&Place since the agency team left Deloitte Digital in late 2024.

The campaign is brought to life across TV, digital, social, outdoor, audio and owned channels.
