Future Students

Sydney College of the Arts (SCA) is the Visual Arts Faculty of the University of Sydney. SCA has a prestigious history of educating many of Australia's most successful contemporary visual artists and curators. We have never stinted from delivering learning and teaching of the highest quality across all our specialist areas. And our staff are of the highest calibre, enjoying national and international reputations as artists, writers and academics. As a Faculty of one of the world's foremost research-intensive universities, we are proud to be able to apply the benefits of our own practices directly into learning and teaching at all levels, from first year undergraduate study through to PhD.

We offer an exciting range of programs that reflect our mission to provide vibrant and conceptually coherent coverage of subjects relevant to international contemporary arts. Our excellent reputation derives from a track record of consistent achievement for students and graduates. Not content to live on past successes, though, we continue to lead change and innovate in order to meet the demands of a rapidly changing world.

Our job is to prepare students for future success, and we believe a student-centred environment is the most important factor in achieving this. The work illustrated here on our website speaks for itself. And if you want to be part of it all, read on and make contact. If you can, come and see us.
