Sydney Located on the east coast of the country, Sydney is the gateway to Australia and home to nearly five million people. Australia’s first and largest city, Sydney is ranked the world’s 13th best student city in the latest QS World University Rankings (2017). Sydney has an invigorating vitality which draws people outdoors. Beautiful sandy beaches and a stunning natural coastline engage locals and visitors all year round. The city is also strikingly multicultural with a wide array of nationalities, languages, cultures and cuisines, complementing each other in a harmonious environment. Whilst our beaches dazzle, it is the world-renowned Sydney Harbour which provides the city’s most glamorous focal point. The UNSW CBD Campus is only a short walk from the busy harbour, which is dominated by the awe-inspiring Sydney Opera House and Sydney Harbour Bridge. Situated on a 38-hectare site just 6 kilometres from the Sydney Central Business District is the main UNSW Kensington Campus, located in Sydney’s fashionable eastern suburbs. This Campus is only a 5 minute drive from Coogee Beach, and a 20 minute drive from world-famous Bondi Beach. 8
