A leader in research and innovation

A vibrant leader in research and innovation, University of Technology Sydney (UTS) is ranked the #1 young university in Australia, with origins that date back to the nineteenth century.

Located on a purpose-built campus in downtown Sydney, UTS’ population of 46,000 diverse and international students (from 120 countries) study in nine faculties and enjoy state-of-the art facilities, thoughtful group work areas, and study/lounge areas all around campus that look like mini living rooms.

A commitment to fostering the use of cutting-edge technology, a practice-based approach, and an institutional value around hands-on experience, along with considerable links to industry, make this university a perfect choice for future journalists, designers, and entrepreneurs. The campus also features proximity to Sydney’s media district and an AACSB-accredited Business School.  This program is a real resume-booster, offering practical, real-world experiences.

Academics are characterized by a multidisciplinary approach, particularly in the Social Sciences, and many lecturers are leaders in their areas of expertise who are also engaged in professional practice.

Placement options include: Advertising; architecture & landscape architecture; arts; business operations (including HR); entrepreneurial start-ups; environment & sustainability; film & TV; financial services; health; hospitality; journalism; law; marketing; non-governmental organizations; politics; psychology; public relations; sport; and theatre.
