As Australia's #1 young university, we challenge the sandstone status quo to help you launch a truly unconventional career that sets you up for success. 

In the beating heart of creative Sydney, it's not just a university, it's a campus that sprawls through your well-loved Sydney lifestyle. It's a coffee shop, a robotics institute, a music studio, a sporting arena, a spark of an idea and the drive to follow it through. Your aspirations come to life when you make education your own, and with technology at the forefront of data, AI and robotics, we are here to help you stay one step ahead of industry. 

In fact, we have the largest entrepreneurship program in Australia, so that your career can start today, not tomorrow. There are also opportunities to collaborate across faculties to find your curiousty for things that have never been done before. We do it so that every research idea is achieved, and so that you can be proud to join a university that cares about a better future for us all.
