The Sydney advantage

Sydney choice

At the University of Sydney we offer choice - a wide range of modular courses with flexible degree structures. We don’t believe one model fits all. We encourage you to start working towards your goal, your way, from your first day at university.

A rich and vibrant student life

With hundreds of clubs and societies, cafes, bars, bands, theatre productions, sports, and three sporting complexes, you will be a part of Australia’s most vibrant and active student community.

Our campus

In 2010, the university completed an $800 million project to renew, rebuild and enhance our campuses. The result is a unique blend of heritage buildings, modern architecture and landscaping.

The School of Information Technologies

As part of the campus upgrade, the School of Information Technologies moved into its new purpose-built building with state-of-the-art facilities. The school is a key teaching and research institution of IT in Australia­­.
