Consistently ranked in the world's top 50 Universities
In 2019, UNSW was ranked 45th in the QS World University Rankings, 96th in the 2019 Times Higher Education World University Rankings and 102 in the 2018 Academic Ranking of World Universities. The annual rankings use six indicators to compare the world’s top 800 universities: academic and employer reputation, staff-student ratios, research citations and the proportion of international staff and students.
As a member of Universitas 21, the Association of Pacific Rim Universities (APRU), GlobalTech, Coursera and the Group of Eight, UNSW harnesses opportunities to connect.
We strive to develop frameworks for dynamic collaboration with some of the world’s leading universities.
One of Australia's leading research-intensive universities
Our strong ties with other researchers, industry and government in Australia and abroad have seen our research translated into innovations that have changed our world. From providing clean drinking water to developing lifesaving HIV drugs and helping China’s most vulnerable children, research at UNSW is helping save lives and pave the way to an even better future.
Active partnerships with over 500 leading institutions around the globe
UNSW partners with hundreds of institutions around the world to create mutually beneficial opportunities and outcomes across research, student mobility and other areas of cooperation.
We were the first university in Australia, and one of the first in the world, to offer the majority of our research discoveries, inventions and intellectual property to companies and individuals for free.
We connect science with industry, business and community
UNSW recently outperformed all other universities in Australia to receive $10.5 million for industry-based collaborative research projects from the Australian Research Council.
The funding will support the Linkage Project scheme, which teams university researchers with industry, business and community partners to forge innovative solutions to some of the world’s biggest problems.
