UNSW Sydney (The University of New South Wales) is the destination choice for the best from Australia and around the world. UNSW is ranked in the top 50 universities in the world1 and our graduates are the most hired by LinkedIn’s top 30 most in-demand employers in 20152.

Among many achievements, UNSW has led via transformative social policy and public law and has contributed hugely to the cultural, artistic and intellectual life of our community, while also pioneering the global development of solar energy technologies, helping to control devastating epidemics such as HIV, developing new therapies for depression and anxiety, and making previously unimaginable breakthroughs in quantum computing.

With more than 50,000 students from over 120 countries, it is one of Australia’s most cosmopolitan universities. More of Australia’s top CEO’s who lead ASX100 companies studied at UNSW than any other university3.

UNSW is a member of prestigious networks, such as a founding member of the Group of Eight (a coalition of Australia’s leading research intensive universities), Universitas 21 international network and APRU (Association of Pacific Rim Universities).

UNSW Sydney is also a founding member of The PLuS (Phoenix –London-Sydney) Alliance, which creates, enables and deploys innovative research and education linkages across three globally-focused universities to contribute to a sustainable future by collaborating in the areas of sustainability, global health, social justice, technology and innovation. The PLuS Alliance provides cross-institutional programmes for students around the globe on our campuses and online and establishes research connections across the universities.

The main UNSW campus is located on a 38-hectare site at Kensington, seven kilometres from the centre of Sydney. Other major campuses are the Art & Design campus in the Sydney suburb of Paddington and UNSW Canberra at the Australian Defence Force Academy.

In addition to UNSW Canberra at ADFA, UNSW has eight faculties - Art & Design; Arts & Social Sciences; Built Environment; Business School; Engineering; Law; Medicine; and Science – which offer an extensive range of undergraduate, postgraduate and research programs.
