As the first university to be established in Australasia, the University of Sydney consistently ranks as one of Australia's top universities. We aim to create and sustain a university that will, for the benefit of both Australia and the wider world, maximise the potential of the brightest researchers and most promising students, whatever their social or cultural background.
WIDE OPPORTUNITIES FOR ALL


We are unique among Australia's leading universities in the breadth of disciplines we offer, providing wide opportunities for personal development and cross-disciplinary study that delivers unique insights and breakthroughs. Studying alongside top researchers exposes Sydney students to excellence – and challenges them to succeed as leaders in whatever career field they choose.
COMMUNITY CONTRIBUTION
We reach beyond our campuses to improve the lives of those who never enter our classrooms or laboratories as academics or students. Our award-winning researchers are leaders in addressing issues that impact everyone, from public health to environmental sustainability.
