Whatever you want to do at uni, UOW's got it! We offer hundreds of undergraduate degrees and double degree combinations. Searching through them is easy with our Course Finder.


Students come to UOW from all over Australia and the World, and many of them choose to live at one of our residences. UOW residences are all about student community: they are fun, supportive and a great way to meet heaps of new people. You can find out more at Living at UOW.

Our campus is the best of both worlds - world-class facilities in a relaxed natural environment. Studying's easier when you've got a great space to do it in. See more of our campus here.

Whether its an hour, or a two-day drive; moving away from home is an exciting time, but it can be a shock to new students (and their parents!). It is totally normal if you feel a bit overwhelmed and homesick when you first move to university - you and hundreds of other student will be making an important transition into a whole new world of independent decision making; at UOW we encourage this independence, but we also provide the vital support services necessary to make the transition a whole lot easier!

We have a website called "First Year at UOW' which is designed to help first year students settle in at UOW, to answer common questions and to act as a guide to useful services and information.
