About Network Café
Network Café started 15 years ago as a casual drop-in coffee where international students could meet each other and learn about UTS’ services.
In 2024, we’ll be inviting international, study abroad and exchange students to a weekly coffee drop-in aimed at helping students to foster friendships and develop skills that will help them in the workplace.
We’ll be inviting current students, our Local Legends, to join the Café to give international students a chance to chat with students who have questions about studying, working or living in Australia.

International, Study Abroad and Exchange Students
Attending Network Café can open up a world of opportunities for you. Besides making new friends, you can practice your English skills, learn more about Australian culture and find answers to your questions about student life at UTS.
You will also have the opportunity to find out about the Australian workplace and develop valuable skills you can take with you into your future of work.
The Local Legends (current students) are there to help you settle in, gain confidence and become established at UTS. We hope that you will feel comfortable approaching them with any questions or problems you may have.
To be eligible to join, you must be a first-year International, Study Abroad or Exchange student at UTS.
