Welcome to the University of Wollongong
Welcome from the Vice-Chancellor
Welcome to the University of Wollongong. It is a University of international standing with an enviable record of achievement in teaching and research. It is also located in one of the most beautiful settings in Australia, just an hour's drive south of Australia's largest city, Sydney.
Our students and staff come from diverse backgrounds, many from overseas. They share a culture that respects openness, inclusiveness, collegiality and diversity. I am proud of our talented, motivated and energetic staff - many of whom are leaders in their field nationally and internationally.
We provide a real focus on the student experience. We understand students come to us, each with an individual dream:
- to learn about and reach beyond their field of interest;
- to explore many different experiences that will help them choose their future directions; and also
- to meet others and enjoy a very special time in their lives.
We recognise students learn in many ways, from formal teaching settings, from research in libraries and laboratories and also from other students and from the many cultural, recreational and artistic activities that are available to members of the University community.
Our aim is to nurture quality graduates who are experts in their fields and who can work anywhere in the world. Above all, we are looking to produce tomorrow's leaders, mature well-rounded individuals who will return a contribution to society.
Twice named Australia's University of the Year* - in 1999-2000 for its outstanding research and development partnerships and in 2000-2001 for preparing its students for the e-world - Wollongong has also been ranked the nation's top university for educational experience and graduate outcomes for the last five years. Our current five-star rankings have been awarded in the categories of:
- Research Intensity
- Graduate Rating
- Staff Qualifications
- Getting a Job
- Positive Graduate Outcomes
- Graduate Starting Salaries
I invite you to explore the exciting environment of the University of Wollongong. Within our website, you will find a wealth of material on undergraduate and postgraduate courses, research programs, student services, educational policies and practice, our strategic plan, corporate partnerships and UOW campuses in Wollongong, the South Coast, Southern Highlands and in Sydney and Dubai. I also encourage you to take time to enjoy the 'Virtual Tour' of the University, which will introduce you to our world.
