The University of Wollongong (UOW) offers a diverse range of specialised, quality programs intended to maximise your choices in a rapidly changing world. The qualifications and experience of our academics ensure dynamic learning experience that bridges the gap between theory and practice. Their opinions on a wide range of topics are sought globally, and strong links and regular interaction with industry and business allow us to base our teaching on the latest global trends and needs.

Focused on you

Our size makes the University a truly student-centred campus: smaller classes, individual attention, available staff, a personal approach and two-way communication. During enrolment and throughout your learning experience you can be assured of continued guidance and support.

An inspiring study environment

The UOW main campus is nestled at the foothills of Mount Keira, between tree-covered mountains and the Pacific Ocean, and close to the Wollongong city centre. It is easily reached by public transport. Buses run direct to the University from all areas of Wollongong. The North Wollongong railway station is a 15-minute walk from the University and is serviced by a regular shuttle bus. We have respected our natural environment, creating a beautiful campus with streams, native gardens and abundant birdlife; as well as a number of outdoor cafés and the UniBar. The University is proud to offer you a quality of life difficult to find anywhere else. You will have the opportunity to try the world class University Recreation & Aquatic Centre and join a range of social, sporting, cultural and humanitarian clubs and societies.

Our international community draws students from around Australia and more than 70 countries.

Australia's Number One Teaching University

In August 2005, The Australian newspaper ranked UOW Australia’s number one university for teaching performance, based on the Australian Government Department of Education, Science and Training (DEST).

A Five-Star Education

UOW received the maximum five-star rankings in six key categories in the 2006 Australian Good Universities Guide, which ranks Australia’s universities over a range of criteria. The University has been ranked the nation’s number one university for educational experience and graduate outcomes for the last five years. With the addition in 2005 of a five-star ranking for research intensity, UOW joined an elite group of just eight universities at the top of the rankings in this important category.
