Australian University fees to be reexamined with courses that lead to jobs in high-priority sectors set to be cut and others raised.

The cost of studying humanities is set to increase by 113%, whilst agriculture and maths courses may be given savings of up to 62% and teaching and nursing will reduce fees by 46%.

These proposed fee changes are set to occur from next year, for current students studying courses decreasing in price the price will reduce next year but for students currently studying degrees set to increase, there will be no increase.
