About
University of Tasmania (UTAS)
The University of Tasmania (UTAS) is the fourth oldest university in Australia and has a rich history. It is proud to feature in the top 300 universities in the world, as per the Academic Ranking of World Universities 2018. It is Australia’s premier university for teaching excellence, having received more teaching awards than any other Australian university.
With over 4,400 international students in a student body of around 38,000, UTAS is committed to providing a welcoming environment for them through ready access to staff and customised support services. The University offers more than 100 undergraduate and 150 postgraduate programs. These include degrees in traditional disciplines such as law, medicine, business, IT, arts, education and science but also niche programmes taking advantage of Tasmania’s unique location and ecosystems including marine and Antarctic science, maritime engineering, food safety, rural and polar health, and environmental law and governance.
The University is located in Australia’s most southern state, Tasmania. Being the only university in the state offers UTAS privileged partnerships with state government and business as well as research agencies such as CSIRO and the Australian Antarctic Division.
It has two main campuses, one located in the picturesque waterfront capital, Hobart, and the other in Launceston on the banks of the Tamar River. Lonely Planet lists Tasmania in its Top 4 must visit destinations in the world and the state provides students with a year-round festival calendar, World Heritage-listed parks, and endless travel opportunities.
UTAS is a great option for students as it gives them a unique opportunity to obtain a brilliant education in one of the most beautiful places in the world.
