Western Sydney University

Success starts here at the world’s best uni*. We’re challenging the traditional notion of what a university should be.

Forward facing

We are dedicated to ensuring our students enjoy a dynamic learning experience. Deeply embedded in the community, our campuses span the region of Australia’s fastest growing economy. From our award-winning, tech-infused vertical campuses in western Sydney’s growing CBDs, to the forward-focused new teaching methodologies, we ensure you are well prepared for the future.

Student-centred

Through our HSC True Reward early offer program, we recognise that you are more than your ATAR. That’s why we focus on your strongest skills and the subjects in which you excel, making early offers based on your Year 11 or Year 12 results in the subjects that matter most to your chosen degree.

Embedded in excellence

Ranked in all major global rankings systems, we are delighted to once again been named number one in the world for our social, economic and environmental impact in the Times Higher Education (THE) University Impact Rankings for the second year in a row – a first for an Australian university.

Assessing universities on their commitment to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, Western Sydney University topped the list of more than 1,700 institutions from 115 countries for our response to issues such as sustainability, climate action, equality, inclusivity and social justice.

Thought leaders

Western Sydney University is also a research leader – the result of focused investment in its research strengths and facilities. We see learning and research as connected aspects of the student experience. We work with regional, national and international partners to deliver research that has a positive impact on the economic, social and environmental wellbeing of our communities.

Global vision

We empower our students with professional and personal experiences so they can influence change locally and globally. With more than 200,000 highly respected alumni, the university offers the benefits of a dynamic, culturally rich and globally aware graduate community.
