A brighter
future
awaits
CHOOSING A UNIVERSITY TO ATTEND IS ONE OF
THE MOST EXCITING YET DIFFICULT DECISIONS
YOU AND YOUR FAMILY WILL MAKE.

As President and Vice-Chancellor of UNSW I take great


pride in our achievements, particularly our status as one
of the top 100 universities in the world, and as Australia’s
premier university focused on science, technology,
business and the professions.

Our modern and cosmopolitan campus sees staff and


students from 120 different countries come together to
pursue their academic passions and to tackle some of
the world’s greatest challenges. Through research, we
are making a difference in areas such as climate change
and lifesaving HIV treatment. We are also developing
innovative new technologies, including ultra-powerful
quantum computers that will transform the way we
work, and the groundbreaking bionic eye, which has the
potential to give the power of sight back to thousands.

This is a particularly exciting time to be studying at


UNSW. The Tyree Energy Technologies Building is our
new home for energy research and we have recently
completed the Wallace Wurth redevelopment, housing
state-of-the-art research and teaching medical facilities.
We have also expanded our on-campus student
accommodation with the Kensington Colleges and the
University Terraces.

By choosing UNSW you will be joining the brightest


and best students from Australia and abroad. Surveys
show their success in their chosen careers, with our
graduates consistently earning among the highest
starting salaries. UNSW has educated more CEOs
from Australia’s top 50 companies, produced more
technology entrepreneurs in the past 15 years and has
a higher number of millionaire alumni than any other
Australian university. So you know you will be joining a
talented and highly driven student community.

I wish you well with your journey ahead and hope to


welcome you to UNSW in the near future.

Frederick G Hilmer AO
President and Vice-Chancellor

Welcome
to Sydney
AUSTRALIA’S LARGEST AND MOST DYNAMIC
CITY, SYDNEY IS A BEAUTIFUL, VIBRANT AND
EVER-CHANGING METROPOLIS. IN 2013, IT
WAS RANKED BY THE ECONOMIST’S GLOBAL
LIVEABILITY SURVEY* AS ONE OF THE WORLD’S
TOP 10 MOST LIVEABLE CITIES.

Located on the south-east coast, Sydney is the gateway


to Australia and home to over 4.5 million people. Ideally
positioned between Australia and the Asia Pacific region,
Sydney is known as the country’s central business
capital. Plus, with such a high quality of living and vibrant
student mix, Sydney has been recognised as Australia’s
best student city in the QS list of the top cities for
students in 2013.

Australia’s business capital


With a strong economy and record of growth and stability,
Sydney is known internationally as Australia’s business
capital. More multinational companies have their regional
headquarters in Sydney than any other city in Australia
making it the country’s financial and commercial epicentre.
The city’s high living and educational standards contribute
to the reason our well qualified graduates are responsive
to today’s modern challenges. Sydney is a launch pad to
the rest of the world, giving our graduates the tools and
experience to make a profound and successful impact
both within Australia and on the world stage.

A vibrant city
Sydney is one of the world’s most multicultural cities.
You can experience a variety of food, entertainment
and cultures from around the world. And because of
the diverse cultural background, Australians are very
accepting of other cultures. In fact, over 50% Sydney’s
residents were born outside Australia or have at least one
parent born overseas.
