Program Overview

About The University of Sydney

From its beginnings in 1850, the University of Sydney was created as an institution to suit the needs of New South Wales, not simply reflect England's ancient universities.

The University of Sydney is a place that makes things happen. We are a community not just of excellence, but of impact.

Our scholars and students share a passionate commitment to the transformative power of education. Our research makes a real difference to our understanding of today's world and how we work and live in it, and we enrich our community by bringing together people from all social and cultural backgrounds.


About Sydney

Sydney is one of the world's most loved cities and it has a lively and vibrant buzz that makes it the ultimate winter destination. There are always plenty of things to do in Sydney during the cooler months - from sightseeing and world-class dining, to great walks and fun in the sand at one of Sydney's idyllic beaches.
