Overview

About University of Tasmania

The fourth-oldest university in Australia, the University of Tasmania has campuses in all three regions of Tasmania – Hobart, Launceston, and Burnie – and a dedicated nursing and paramedicine campus in Sydney.

With more than 30,000 students, the University offers over 100 undergraduate degrees and more than 150 postgraduate courses in a diverse range of disciplines. This includes some that are as unique as the island state itself, such as the Bachelor of Marine and Antarctic Science, which is the only one of its kind in Australia.

The University also places a strong focus on close collaboration and co-location with local industries and businesses, providing students with direct access to industry leaders and experts, and an enviable student-to-teacher ratio of 23:1 on average.

Tasmania itself is less than an hour’s flight from Melbourne and is known for its pleasant temperate climate, easy access to nature and heritage, and a relaxed small-city pace with a strong arts culture.
