Student spaces on campus

For up-to-date information about studying at UTS, campus access and what we’re doing to keep our community safe, please visit our COVID-19 impacts and response page.

Our inner-city campus is filled with spaces to study, socialise, grab a coffee or have some quiet time, with Wi-Fi connectivity ensuring you’re never out of touch.

All students are welcome in all UTS public spaces, regardless of the faculty or university where they're enrolled.
